The overarching objective of the CFSP is to consolidate our past achievements and take cognizance of implementing challenges in the past as we identify opportunities and strategies for the realization of Kenya Vision 2030 and the Big four Agenda namely Manufacturing, Affordable housing, Healthcare and food security . The transformational agenda is geared towards creating wealth & ensuring socio economic transformation of the County through reducing the poverty levels and achieving the following key objectives; develop, maintain & improve water sources and increase water distribution for domestic use, equip health facilities and recruit general and specialist staff to increase access to healthcare, increase agricultural productivity, increase access to energy, ICT, road infrastructure, improve town and urban planning, increase opportunities and economic empowerment of youth, women, men, OVCs and the physically challenged. The Government will adopt a holistic approach in matters of development and service delivery.
