“We have set aside Ksh 10 million for County Enterprise Fund and Ksh. 20 million for County Cooperative Revolving Fund. We also have Ksh. 10 million for Household Economic Empowerment Proragramme designed for micro-household activities like setting up kitchen gardens and purchase of water tanks. These funds are all geared towards giving women an edge,” said Joshua Irungu, the Governor Laikipia County.
