Kilifi County Governor H.E Gideon Mung’aro has pledged to work with religious leaders to ensure service delivery to the people of Kilifi.
Speaking when he received a community-generated memorandum by religious leaders drawn from NCCK, KCCB, and SUPKEM, Governor Mung’aro urged the clergy to leverage their platforms to support him deliver service to Kilifi residents.
“Religious leaders play a critical role in the society. It is therefore important for us to work together to ensure service delivery to the people of Kilifi,” said Governor Mung’aro.
“We are currently working round the clock to improve the education sector, implement youth empowerment programmes, and ensure that there’s peace and adequate security in all parts of Kilifi County, but we can only deliver on these mandates with your support as clergy,” added the Governor.
The memorandum titled “The Kilifi County We Envision” was presented by a delegation led by the NCCK Kilifi CCC Chairperson Bishop Alfred Magambo. It is advocating for fast tracking of the implementation of the Governor’s manifesto and promises he made in the run-up to the 2022 general elections.
The memorandum highlighted key priority areas that require the Governor’s attention including education, health, and agriculture. In response, the Governor acknowledged these priority areas and affirmed that his government is committed to addressing them.
At the same time, the Governor invited the religious leaders to attend his quarterly meetings with the CECs for follow-up on the strategies to address the issues raised in the memorandum.
