The people of Wajir honour CORD leaders

The father of devolution Rt. Hon. Raila Odinga together with CORD co-principal H.E. Hon Kalonzo Musyoka and other CORD leaders, currently on a working tour of Wajir County, were taken on an historic walk on the first ever tarmacked road in Wajir (a miracle to the residents), which has been constructed through the efforts of the devolved Wajir County Government.

In September 2014, hundreds of residents of Wajir and their leaders attended the ground breaking ceremony of the first ever tarmac road for Wajir, amid excitement and hope of a new change in town. The Wajir County Governor Ahmed Abdullahi launched the construction of 8 kilometres for the first phase of the 25km network of tarmac within Wajir Town and urged traders operating along the busy Wajir-Isiolo road to relocate to the new Soko Mjinga II for road works to progress well. “After the tarmacking, we will install street lights immediately so that our people feel secure and can do their business 24 hours,” Abdullahi said.
