NAIROBI, Kenya Dec 22 \u2013 President William Ruto has reiterated his commitment to Kenya\u2019s socio-economic transformation, promising that the country\u2019s development trajectory is \u201cunstoppable\u201d and inclusive of all citizens.<\/p>\n

Speaking during the Baringo Cultural Festival and Kimalel Goat Auction, the President said his administration is firmly taking charge of Kenya\u2019s destiny by rebuilding the economy from the bottom up, empowering citizens, and ensuring that no Kenyan is left behind.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have reinvigorated agriculture, securing Kenya\u2019s place as a food-sufficient nation. Our healthcare system has been revamped to be more inclusive, more affordable, and accessible to every citizen, everywhere,\u201d President Ruto said.<\/p>\n

The annual event is expected to see over 4,200 goats change hands in the event graced by President Ruto.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s auction marks a historic shift for Kimalel. For the first time since its inception in 1992, the sale has integrated digital technology, allowing buyers to participate remotely rather than being physically present at the auction grounds.<\/p>\n

The move is expected to broaden the market, increase efficiency, and reduce costs for local farmers.<\/p>\n

Beyond livestock trade, the Kimalel Goat Auction remains a vibrant cultural and social event. Attendees can enjoy boat races on Lake Baringo, featuring traditional rafts locally known as Kaldich<\/em> alongside motorboats, offering a spectacular display of skill and tradition.<\/p>\n

The festival fosters community cohesion and celebrates the rich cultural heritage of the region.<\/p>\n

The auction was pioneered by the late President Daniel arap Moi in 1992, with a vision to improve the livelihoods of Baringo\u2019s pastoral communities by providing a dependable market and better prices for livestock.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Over the years, the initiative has helped generations of farmers educate their children, build resilience, and sustain their communities through livestock wealth.<\/p>\n

In the event,President Ruto highlighted the Affordable Housing Programme as a cornerstone of the administration\u2019s development agenda, noting that it has created over 500,000 jobs for youth, restored dignity to families, and renewed hope in communities across the country.<\/p>\n

Ruto also pointed to major infrastructure projects underway, including the world-class 60,000-seater Talanta Sports City Stadium, which is nearing completion and expected to cement Kenya\u2019s position as a global sporting powerhouse.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Another flagship project is the Bomas International Convention Complex, the largest of its kind in East and Central Africa, scheduled for completion by April 2026. The facility is designed to meet the demands of modern international conferences.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are delivering on our promises. We are moving Kenya decisively toward first-world status. This vision will be realised within our lifetime. It is inevitable. It is irreversible. It is unstoppable,\u201d the President said.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
