President William Ruto has reaffirmed his administration’s unwavering commitment to transforming the country through bold policy initiatives, saying that building a better Kenya demands courage, vision, and perseverance.
Speaking at State House, Nairobi, during the launch of the Affordable Housing Internship Programme, the President described the new initiative as a key pillar in actualizing the government’s housing agenda while also addressing youth unemployment.
“Transforming a country does not come easy. It takes courage, foresight and commitment. We will keep pushing. Our vision for a better Kenya is irreversible,” said Ruto.
The Affordable Housing Internship Programme is expected to benefit 4,000 fresh graduates in the building and construction sector.
It will provide practical exposure and mentorship to young professionals including architects, engineers, surveyors, and construction managers, helping to bridge the gap between classroom theory and on-the-ground experience.
Ruto said the internship aligns with the larger Affordable Housing Programme, which aims to provide decent and accessible housing to Kenyans across the country while spurring job creation.
“This programme is not just about training — it’s about building a generation that will deliver Kenya’s transformation in the construction sector,” he added.
