Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi has said the newly commissioned education and water projects in Funyula Constituency align with the government’s long-term vision for equitable development across the country.
Speaking during the launch of a Ksh39.5 million double-storey tuition block at Moody Awori Primary School, Mudavadi noted that the 16-classroom facility will not only benefit pupils in Funyula but also set a standard for public school infrastructure in rural Kenya.
“This is what the government’s Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda means at the local level — investing in infrastructure that directly changes people’s lives,” he said.
Mudavadi also inaugurated the rehabilitated Nambuku Location Schools Water Project, which now operates on a hybrid solar pumping system.
The project is expected to improve access to clean water for schools, health facilities, and nearby communities, while reducing dependence on erratic power supply.
He said such initiatives tie into Kenya’s strategy of leveraging natural resources like Lake Victoria to boost economic activity, promote regional integration within the East African Community, and strengthen border security.
The event was attended by senior leaders, including Busia Governor Dr. Paul Otuoma, MPs from the region, and former Vice President Dr. Moody Awori, who founded the school in 1992.
