Hundreds of Kenyans have lauded the government's affordable housing program as scores have benefitted from job opportunities arising from the ongoing construction works.

The affordable housing program is a cornerstone of Kenya's vision 2030 and the government's big four agenda aimed at addressing the growing house deficit by providing decent and affordable housing particularly for those at the bottom of the economic pyramid.

The program that aims to deliver 500,000 is a significant step towards addressing the housing crisis and ensuring that all citizens have access to safe and secure homes while stimulating local economies by creating jobs and fostering community development.

Currently the affordable housing projects are underway in multiple regions across the country consequently alleviating the burden of unemployment countrywide.
