Governor Kenneth Lusaka’s aide, Eric Nyoti has defended the county administration’s development record, citing major investments in infrastructure, healthcare, water and agriculture while urging Bungoma residents to support ongoing projects aimed at transforming livelihoods.<\/p>\n

Speaking during a fundraising at Bunambobi secondary school in Bumula Constituency on Friday, Nyoti dismissed criticism directed at the county government, saying Lusaka’s administration has delivered tangible results across the county and remains committed to accelerating development through prudent use of public resources.<\/p>\n

\u201cGovernor Lusaka\u2019s projects can be see across the county that is I call upon Bungoma people to continue supporting him finish his term and even move to the next level,\u201d Nyoti said.<\/p>\n

Lusaka\u2019s aide however, commended governor Lusaka\u2019s administration for investing in healthcare citing Bumula Sub county hospital as an example.<\/p>\n

\u201cIgnore what our opponents are fueling on social media that Lusaka has not worked, the truth of the matter is that at Bumula sub county hospital all services are now available and that is our pride,\u201d Nyoti said.<\/p>\n

He highlighted the expansion of healthcare services at Bumula sub county hospital noting that residents can now access specialized treatment closer to home.<\/p>\n

Among the key services available are surgical theatre operations, eye care services and enhanced maternal healthcare which have significantly improved access to quality medical care for patients.<\/p>\n

Nyoti said the investments have reduced the need for residents to travel long distances in search of treatment, while also contributing to better health outcomes, particularly for expectant mothers, newborns and patients requiring specialized medical attention.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
