Governor Wavinya Ndeti has reaffirmed her administration’s unwavering commitment to expanding access to clean, safe, and reliable water across Machakos County, emphasizing that water service delivery remains one of the key priorities under her leadership.
During an inspection of the St. Mary’s Catholic Church Borehole in Tala, Governor Ndeti highlighted the transformative impact of the project, noting that it represents the county government’s continued investment in sustainable water infrastructure aimed at improving the lives of residents.
The borehole will provide a dependable source of clean water to the church congregation while the completed water reticulation network will extend the supply to the surrounding community. The project is expected to significantly reduce the challenges caused by recurring water shortages, ensuring that hundreds of households have access to a reliable and safe water source.
Governor Ndeti underscored that expanding water infrastructure is central to her administration’s development agenda, as access to clean water is essential for public health, economic empowerment, environmental sustainability, and the dignity of every citizen.
She reiterated that, as water service provision is a devolved function, her government will continue prioritizing investments in strategic water projects across the county to bridge existing access gaps and improve service delivery in both urban and rural areas.
“The provision of clean and reliable water is not just about infrastructure; it is about improving lives, protecting public health, and creating opportunities for communities to thrive,” Governor Ndeti said.
The St. Mary’s Catholic Church Borehole project stands as another milestone in Governor Wavinya Ndeti’s broader vision of building a water secure Machakos, where every resident has equitable access to this essential resource. Through continued investments in boreholes, water reticulation systems, and other critical water infrastructure, the county government is steadily addressing long standing water challenges while laying the foundation for sustainable socio economic development.
Governor Ndeti reaffirmed that her administration remains focused on ensuring that no community is left behind in the quest for universal access to clean and reliable water, reinforcing her commitment to delivering impactful development projects that directly improve the quality of life for the people of Machakos County.
