During this year’s Jamhuri Day celebrations, President Uhuru Kenyatta gave a speech that sounded like a sequel to the one he gave on the same day a year earlier. He spoke of the progress of his Big Four Agenda since he unveiled it in 2017.

Through this ambitious plan, President Uhuru wants to curve for himself a legacy by the time he leaves office. By 2022, his administration hopes to put up half a million low-cost houses, create jobs by revamping the manufacturing sector, provide food to all Kenyans, and ensure access to healthcare services.
