Kenya Ports Authority has reaffirmed its commitment to improving school infrastructure in Northern Kenya through a series of projects in Wajir County under its Corporate Social Investment (CSI) programme.
The Authority has initiated and completed construction and rehabilitation works in several schools aimed at expanding classroom space and improving learning conditions in marginalized areas.
During an inspection tour of the ongoing projects, KPA Board Director Ahmed Ali Muktar said the programme is designed to create safe, child-friendly learning environments and expand access to education.
“We appreciate KPA’s support in ensuring that all children, regardless of their location or background, have the opportunity to learn and thrive.
This is a positive step towards empowering communities,” Muktar said during visits to Dardar Primary School in Diif and Ibrahim Ure Mixed Secondary School in Wajir South. KPA has three school projects completed and handed over in Wajir County, with two more nearing completion.
The projects include Abakhalul Primary School, Dardar Primary School, Ibrahim Ure Secondary School, Bililmarodi Primary School and Marothiley Primary School, all located in marginalized areas of the county.
The investments are part of the Authority’s broader CSI strategy targeting education, health and community development in areas that host or are linked to its operations.
