I am pleased to note that the Homa Bay Water and Sewerage Company, HOMAWASCO, is making proactive steps in improving water infrastructure. With the recent acquisition of 6km of pipes, HOMAWASCO is enhancing connectivity and repairing damaged connections in Homa Bay Town, positively impacting over 500 connections in Shauri Yako, Sofia, Makongeni, and Pedo areas.

I join national and world leaders, as well as the general public, in mourning the passing of His Highness Prince Karim Al-Hussaini, the Aga Khan IV. I extend my heartfelt condolences to his family and the Ismaili Muslim community worldwide. The Aga Khan’s contributions to education, healthcare, and economic empowerment were extraordinary, reflecting his steadfast belief in the power of knowledge, compassion, and entrepreneurship. His philanthropy transformed landscapes, bridged cultures, and fostered development in some of the world's most vulnerable regions. May his soul rest in eternal peace.

We held a productive meeting with Hon. Davis Chirchir, EGH, the Cabinet Secretary for @TransportKE. Our discussions centred on actively advocating for the opening, construction, and upgrading of the county's road network to boost our local economy. Key projects include expediting the completion of the Sori-Magunga-Sindo-Mbita Road and constructing the Gor Mahia Ring Road in Ndhiwa. Developing the Adiedo-Namba Karabok road, Ojijo Oteko road, Homa Bay town roads, Kadongo- Gendia, and Oboke- Rangwe - Ndiru roads. These initiatives are vital for improving the movement of people and goods in and out of Homa Bay County. The leadership of Homa Bay County, including @senatorkajwang, Senator Beatrice Ogola, Hon. Ong'ondo Were (Kasipul), Hon. Dr. Eve Obara (Kabondo Kasipul), Hon. Adipo Okuome (Karachuonyo), Hon. Dr. Lilian Gogo (Rangwe), Hon. Martin Peters Owino (Ndhiwa), Hon.

I am saddened by the passing of Professor Bethwell Allan Ogot, an outstanding academician and historian of great distinction. His research significantly shaped historical research in Kenya and beyond. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family, the academic community, and the nation. Prof. Ogot's advocacy for gender equity and inclusivity will be greatly missed. May his family find peace during this time of loss.
