Residents of Kanam area in Rachuonyo West Sub County have finally allowed the establishment of a university that will provide a variety of courses for students.
Initially, there was reluctance among the residents to allocate the necessary 150 acres of land to Manda Trustee Kenya for the construction of the Manda university but after a public participation forum, many changed their minds, recognising the potential benefits of the initiative.
Charles Otieno Ayieko, chairman of the Homa Hills Development Organisation, described this decision as unprecedented, noting that it required extensive discussion among the residents to reach a consensus to collaborate with Manda Trustee Kenya. "People expressed their views, and the majority agreed.
We have come together to partner with Manda for the benefit of our community," he stated.
