Residents of Kaloleni constituency in Kilifi County can now expect easier access to essential government services, as the government has officially begun constructing a Huduma Center in the area.
The project, which will cost Sh 23 million, is expected to spare residents the long journey to Mombasa and Kilifi to access essential services such as application of birth certificates, identification cards, driving licenses, passports, and other public services.
Speaking during the ground-breaking ceremony, Huduma Kenya's Chief Executive Officer, Ben Kai assured residents that the project would be completed by the end of the year and it will be operational early next year.
Kai also said that through the project local residents will be considered for employment opportunities beginning from labourers during the construction and also any other available positions upon commencement of operations. "We are committed to ensuring that this Huduma Center is operational by early next year and this will greatly benefit the people of Kaloleni, saving them from the long and costly trips to either Mombasa or Kilifi for accessing essential government services," Kai said.
