President Kenyatta on Tuesday afternoon opened the six annual Devolution Conference themed, “Deliver. Transform. Measure” with a clarion call of “Remaining Accountable”.
The conference, attended by over 6000 delegates, is expected to go on until Friday March 8.
It is expected that the four-day annual event will boost the area’s economic activity with the sleepy town of Kerugoya operating for twenty-four hours as delegates unwind after the lengthy speeches and presentations made during the day.
Waiguru had earlier distributed 150,000 condoms for use during the conference.
