Peninah Malonza, the Cabinet Secretary for East African Community (EAC) Affairs, has affirmed the government’s dedication to spearheading a radical economic transformation aimed at fostering inclusive growth and improving the livelihoods of all citizens, especially those at the lower end of the economic spectrum.
Speaking at a recent economic policy forum in Nairobi, CS Malonza underscored the urgent need for comprehensive reforms to stimulate economic activity and ensure equitable distribution of prosperity across all segments of society. “Our commitment lies in creating opportunities that uplift every Kenyan, regardless of their socio-economic status,” stated Malonza.
The government’s agenda includes initiatives to bolster key sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing, and infrastructure development, which are pivotal to driving sustainable economic growth. These efforts are designed to not only create employment opportunities but also enhance the overall welfare and resilience of communities nationwide.
CS Malonza further emphasized the importance of fostering a conducive business environment and attracting investments that spur innovation and entrepreneurship. “By promoting a vibrant private sector, we can harness our collective potential to achieve lasting economic transformation,” she added.
The government’s ambitious economic agenda comes amid global challenges and local dynamics that require nimble policy responses and proactive measures. Through strategic partnerships with stakeholders and international allies, Kenya aims to leverage its regional strengths and position itself as a hub for trade and investment in East Africa.
As Kenya charts its course towards economic recovery and prosperity, CS Malonza reiterated the government’s unwavering commitment to driving inclusive growth and ensuring that every citizen reaps the benefits of a revitalized economy. The forthcoming policy initiatives and reforms are expected to pave the way for a more resilient and prosperous future for all Kenyans.
