At the site where construction of Kiptum's family house is ongoing, contractors were working to beat the deadline.
Apart from the construction of the house, the planting of trees and flowers and the erecting of a gate have begun.
Tota Richard, a senior director at the State Department for Housing and Urban Development said that the construction of the three-bedroom en suite house relies on a new technology, the first to be witnessed in the North Rift region.
"The Light gauge steel is a combination of technology from various countries and aims at minimizing the use of concrete," noted Tota.
He said construction works are now at past 50 per cent and piping and wiring works have already been done.
"The construction of the house requires even less than seven days. We are working 24 hours a day and the instructions we have are that the house must be ready by latest Thursday morning," stated the director.
He said by Monday, the construction works will be at around 80 per cent and nearing completion.
Tota encouraged Kenyans to embrace technology in constructing their homes noting that it bears many advantages.
"Let us not fear to embrace science. This is the way to go. This is like a printed 3D house that has attracted the attention of many people," he said.
The position where the graveside will be located on the front right side of the house has also been identified.
Tota said that at the site, they have blended tradition and modernity even in the construction of the parent's house.
