y REPUBLIC OF KENYA COUNTY GOVERNMENT OF THARAKA-NITHI COUNTY TREASURY AND ECONOMIC PLANNING DEPARTMENT COUNTY ANNUAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2016/2017FY February 2016 KENYA i A Globally Competitive and Prosperous Kenya Nation Vision A prosperous, industrialized and cohesive County Mission Enhance sustainable socio-economic growth and optimal utilization of resources Core Values As Tharaka Nithi County, we are committed to championing these core values as the guiding codes for our operations: 2 (ICT) Integrity Straightforwardness, ingenuousness, honesty and sincerity are an integral part of our undertakings which we shall firmly adhere to in every duty to our society. Inclusiveness We believe in equity and equality. As a County we do not regard status or personal preferences but approach our work as guided by principles of fairness and non-bias. People from diverse backgrounds or communities are involved in the County development and we incorporate the needs, assets, and perspectives of communities into the design and implementation of county programs. Citizen-focused We consistently endeavor to create enduring relationships with our citizens; in so doing our approach goes beyond standard citizen participation principles and makes their input an integrated, formalized part of setting county projects/program goals, performance measures, and standards. Creativity & Innovativeness We thrive on creativity and ingenuity. We seek the innovations and ideas that can bring a positive change to the County. We value creativity that is focused, data-driven, and continuously-improving based on results. Transparency and Accountability We will remain accountable to our stakeholders and will acknowledge responsibility for our actions and decisions. Thus we shall always endeavour to be transparent, answerable and liable at all times. Team work Every person is important and has a part in county development. We endeavor to build a workplace environment that cultivates person’s uniqueness, encourages staff participation, collaboration and integration of diverse skills and capabilities. ii Forward We are pleased to present an Annual Development Plan that focusses squarely on growth and rejuvenation of our County. Consultation on the County’s Draft Annual Development Plan for 2016-2017 included an opportunity for the departments in each of the nine (9) dockets to submit their planned projects and especially projects that have not allocated money over the last three years but which remain uncompleted. Major projects to be undertaken include: • The county intends to invest in urban infrastructure including access roads, drainages, waste management and garbage collection, Construction of bus parks, street-lighting, modern conference halls, beautification and landscaping among others; • The extension of County’s economic development incentives in sectors of agriculture, industry and trade for foreseeable future to stimulate growth in these sectors. The incentives will focus on promotion of banana, coffee and alternative crops production, development of market centres as well as support of locally based industries; • Continued investment in improving the status of rural roads, which is intended to make every part of the county accessible irrespective of the season. In addition, the county will invest Ksh. 300 million in the medium term in construction of headquarters at Kathwana. • The funding in the next three years to transform health facilities into post-modern health institutions. However, the major focus will be on Chuka General Hospital which is targeted for transformation into a level 4 medical facility with ultra-modern comprehensive medical care; The key emerging issue is the complaints from the stakeholders due to the failure to implement projects because of the delays in funding and long procurement procedures. As a result of this consultation in the budget process we will be geared towards addressing the missing link in the project cycle. ______________________ MUTEGI, M.

It also describes the physiographic and natural conditions as well as the demographic details. These include the position and size, physiographic and natural conditions, demographic features, political units, infrastructure, access to land and land use. It outlines the community organizations, crops, livestock and fish production, forestry, environment and climate change, mining, tourism, employment and other sources of income, water and sanitation, health access and nutrition, education and literacy. POSITION, SIZE AND LOCATION The county borders the counties of Embu to the South West, Meru to the North East, Kirinyiga and Nyeri to the West and Kitui to the East. The county lies between latitude 000 07’ and 000 26’ South and between longitudes 370 19’ and 370 46’ East. The total area of the County is 2,662.1 Km2; including the shared Mt Kenya forest estimated to be 360Km2. Figure 1 shows the location of Tharaka Nithi County within the map of Kenya. Figure 1: The Geographic location of Tharaka Nithi County v PHYSIOGRAPHIC AND NATURAL CONDITIONS Physical and Topographic Features Physical Features The highest altitude of the county is 5,200m in Chuka/Igambang’ombe and Maara while the lowest is 600m Eastwards in Tharaka. The main physical feature of the county is the 360 Km2 of Mt. Kenya forest distributed between Maara and Chuka/Igambang’ombe constituencies. The forest serves as a tourist attraction, is a catchments area for Tana River, a source of fuel wood, fodder and honey for the communities living around it. Major hills found in the county landscape include Kiera, Munuguni and Njuguni in Maara constituency and Kijege and Ntugi in Tharaka constituency. The hilly terrain of the County leads to soil erosion hence environment degradation. The terrain also makes construction and maintenance of road networks costly. Topographical Features The topography of Chuka/Igambang’ombe and Maara constituencies is greatly influenced by the Mt. Kenya volcanic activity creating ‘V’ shaped valleys within which the main tributaries of River Tana flow originating from Mt. Kenya forest. The tributaries flowing eastwards are: - Thuci, Mara, Nithi, Mutonga, Naka, and Ruguti. Tharaka on the other hand is traversed by several rivers, which originate from both the Mt. Kenya 6 and Nyambene Hills, flowing eastwards as tributaries of Tana River. These include Mutonga, Thingithu, Kathita, Thanantu, Thangatha, Kithinu and Ura rivers which provide water for irrigation in the moderately densely populated locations in parts of Tharaka. The region comprises of low, hilly, stony and sandy marginal lowlands with moderate forest cover. Ecological and Climatic Conditions Temperatures in the highland areas range between 14oC to 30oC while those of the lowland area range between 22oC to 36oC. Tharaka constituency, which lies in the lower side, experiences temperatures of up to 40oC at certain periods. The county has a bi-modal rainfall pattern with the long rains falling during the months of April to June and the short rains in October to December. The rainfall ranges from 2,200mm in Chogoria forest to 500mm in Tharaka. The high altitude areas experience reliable rainfall while middle areas of the county receive moderate rainfall. The lower regions receive low, unreliable and poorly distributed rainfall. The climate is favourable for cultivation of tea, coffee, maize, cowpeas, pigeon peas, tobacco and a variety of other food crops. However, there are unusual climate variability incidences arising from climatic change. ADMINISTRATIVE AND POLITICAL UNITS Administrative Subdivision and Political Units The County is divided into four (4) administrative sub counties namely Tharaka North, Tharaka South, Meru South and Maara. These sub-counties are further divided intofifteen (15) wards comprising of sixty three (63) locations and one hundred and sixty four (164) sub-locations in the County. Table 1 shows the total area by sub counties, wards, locations and sub-locations in Tharaka Nithi County.

DEMOGRAPHIC FEATURES Population Size and Composition The county has estimated total population of 399, 415 made of 195,100 males and 204,315 females as per the 2014 estimates which is a gradual increase from 365,330 established during population and housing census conducted in 2009. This is projected to be 421,374 by 2017 (205,826 males and 215,547 females). The county’s annual population growth rate is expected to remain constant at 1.8 %. The female/male sex ratio for the county is 95:100 which conforms to that of national level. Segregation of population according to the age groups has been important in determining the necessary policies to address their needs. The Table 5 gives a summary of the population of the county by selected age groups and sex. 8 Table 3: Population Projections for Selected Age Groups Age 2009 2015 2016 Years Males Females Total Males Females Total Males Females Total Under 1 14,938 14,622 29,560 5,681 5 ,509 11,190 5,884 5,707 11,590 ECDE 3-5 15,623 15,228 30,851 17,668 1 7,222 34,890 20,466 19,948 40,414 Primary School Population 6-13 37,167 36,927 74,094 42,033 4 1,762 83,795 4 8,687 48,373 97,060 Secondary School Population 14-17 15,914 15,928 31,842 17,998 1 8,013 36,011 20,847 20,865 41,712 Youth Population 18-35 49,823 55,222 105,045 56,346 62,452 118,798 6 5,266 72,339 137,605 Children Population < 18 83,642 82,705 166,347 94,593 9 3,533 188,127 8 8,879 87,883 176,761 Voting Population 18 + 94,809 104,174 198,983 99,753 1 09,606 209,358 1 09,568 108,341 217,909 Women of Reproductive Age 15-49 89,934 89,934 101,709 101,709 - 117,810 117,810 Labour force 15-64 97,714 107,173 204,887 110,508 118,943 229,451 128,002 137,773 265,775 Elderly 65 + 8,777 10,680 19,457 9,926 12,078 22,004 11,498 13,990 25,488 Source: Kenya National Bureau of Statistics In addition, the table below shows the projected populations by urban centre.

However, the County Government has initiated measures of spearheading the growth of Gatunga market to a fully pledged urban and administrative centre serving the people of Tharaka North Sub-County given that Marimanti is located in Tharaka South Sub-County. All these towns serve as Sub County headquarters and this has immensely contributed to their fast growth. In addition, Kathwana market centre is the County headquarters and is expected to spur grow fast in the coming years and influence urban settlement in the neighbouring market centres of Kajuki, Chiakariga and Tunyai. These towns are expected to attract more immigrants in search of employment and business opportunities. This will continue to suppress the social amenities and other facilities in these urban areas in future. However, the County Government is well aware and informed of the anticipated changes in the demography of these and other urban areas and is acting swiftly to put in place mitigating measures. In this context, the County Government has set aside resources for demarcation of plots within urban areas, urban centres planning including spatial plans, major town administration and infrastructure development. Therefore, the County Government is taking a proactive approach in addressing the challenges of a modern urban centre and is calling all stakeholders to a genuine collaboration. Additionally, the population distribution can be shown as composition of the different sexes in the three constituencies. Population composition according to the different sexes helps to determine the sex ratio. Table below shows the population distribution by constituency and sex.

Over the three financial years the sector was allocated 315 M to finance the above programmes as development allocation. Crop Production has been receiving the largest portion of the allocation especially to finance activities geared towards ensuring food security and eradicating hunger and poverty. This include promotion of Traditional High Value Crops, promotion of banana farming and provision of farm inputs to farmers. The Sector has also embarked on an ambitious programme to promote better post-harvest handling of grains by construction cereal stores in all sub counties. LANDS, PHYSICAL PLANNING, ENERGY AND ICT SECTOR DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS The sector comprises four main programmes including ICT infrastructure development, energy resource development and management, spatial planning services and land management and administration. A total of 50 projects were funded in two financial years with a total allocated amounting to Ksh100.6M for the two financial years for development purposes. These was to be used for land adjudication, registration, spatial planning and rural electrification projects. HEALTH SECTOR DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS The sector has been devided into four key programmes namely preventive and promotive health, curative health maternal and child health and general administration services. A total of 102 projects were funded in the three financial years with a total allocation of Ksh 427, 550,000 (four hundred and twenty seven million, five hundred and fifty thousand). On average two million three hundred and forty nine thousand one hundred and seventy five shilling (2,349,175) per project. Most of the funding went to the improvement of health facilities which involved renovation and construction of different wings in different facilities county wide. Most of the projects are still ongoing given that the allocated funds have not been sufficient to complete the many projects leading many of them remaining unfinished. It’s that important to focus on completing the ongoing projects before starting new ones. On positive note the county has been able to hire over 350 health workers which has helped to alleviate the shortage of health workers even though 11 there is need to hire even more. The sector has also been dogged with several labour strikes which have in turn affected service delivery. PUBLIC SERVICE & URBAN DEVELOPMENT SECTOR DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS During the FY 2014/2015, the CGTN set aside 65 million towards activities in urban areas planning and infrastructure development and public service. In the FY 2015/2016 the CGTN allocated 72.9million towards completion of ongoing projects for the previous FY as well as initiating new ones. This led to modernization of urban centers and markets as well as construction of offices. The grand total for the two financial years towards urban development and public service was 137.9million. EDUCATION SECTOR DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS Discussions during CIDP development by the county stakeholders revealed poor infrastructure and unhygienic learning conditions as one of the key challenges in schools. There are many cases of children learning in dusty and poorly ventilated classrooms that lack adequate furniture. Poor parents have little capacity to invest in both learning and play materials. The TNCG during the FY 2014/2015 bearing in mind the importance of education though not a county function supported the education sector countywide by setting aside Kshs.30 million towards a bursary programme that was distributed among needy learners countywide. The TNCG further during the FY 2015/2016 set aside another Kshs. 30 million towards the bursary and education scholarships countywide. The county government also supported development in dilapidated schools to improve quality of learning environment through construction of classrooms and toilets, rehabilitation and provision of furniture. Consultations further also revealed poor transition and retention especially for children from poor households. High cost of living and slow economic growth has reduced many families to basic survival strategies with little income to meaningfully invest in the development of education. TNCG introduced revolving fund for Youth, Women, and PWDs to a tune of 20million in the FY2014/2015 and 10million in the FY2015/2016. This built the capacity of poor parents by improving their economic wellbeing by involving themselves in income generating activities hence improving transition of children from one level of education to another. The grand total allocation for the two financial years towards education sector directly and indirectly was 90million. There were challenges in the implementation of these programs from bureaucracies from school management committees which derailed the implementation and others. Higher expectations from the 12 community being served also posed massive challenges as the TNCG had inadequate funds which could not address their requirement fully. TOURISM AND WATER SECTOR DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS Over the last three years the sector has focussed on implanting three programmes i.e. Tourism Development and promotion, water supply services and environment and natural resource management. A total of 185 projects were funded with a total allocation of Ksh 383,900,000/= in the three consecutive financial years. On average two million, seven five thousand, one hundred and thirty five shillings per project. Most funded projects were water Projects which involved extension on existing community projects through provision of pipes and construction of water tanks and intakes. The Tourism sub sector projects included development of tourism sites and branding of the sector including the hosting of the Miss Tourism pageants over the last two years. One notable project was the opening of the Ura gate and hosting of the cultural week in 2015. The Environment sub sector has seen the department carry out tree planting campaigns, development of seedlings and protection of hilltops. ROADS, PUBLIC WORKS, HOUSING AND LEGAL AFFAIRS SECTOR DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS This sector has received the biggest share of the County allocation over the last three years amounting to 1286.6M going towards roads construction and maintenance. The key programmes of Grading, murraming and opening of new roads has been done in order to up all areas of the county and spur economic development in the county. This has been done but the key challenge has been the adverse weather conditions especially the heavy rains hence the roads require frequent rehabilitation. TRADE, INDUSTRY AND COOPERATIVE SECTOR DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS A total of thirty eight projects were funded in the three consecutive years with a total allocation of Ksh 65, 450, 000. Most of the products are completed while a few are yet to be started. Most of the allocation was utilised towards the construction and rehabilitation of public facilities in markets notably Kaanwa and Kathwana. The other major allocation was used to provide low cost loans to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) 13 COUNTY ASSEMBLY The Assembly performs the constitutional areas of legislation, oversight representation and any other role as provided by statutory law. The Assembly intends to spend Ksh seventy million (70M) towards construction. Another Ksh one hundred million (100M) will be provided in the funds are availed by the National Government. Such expenditure shall be budgeted for and be implemented by the county department in charge of infrastructure development. The issue of the members of the County Assembly and staff mortgage and car loan schemes will be availed as and when funds are available.
