Uasin Gishu Governor Jackson Mandago EGH, on Thursday, attended a North Rift Economic bloc (NOREB) meeting organised by the Ministry of Devolution and ASALs at an Eldoret hotel.

The meeting moderated by State Department of Devolution and ASALs Principal Secretaries Charles Sunkuli and Micah Powon brought together all the eight North Rift counties whose participation was to deliberate on proposed policy intended to guide the establishment and management of regional economic blocs by county governments

Participants representing counties at the meeting were upbeat for the planned establishment of the policy saying it would spur development across the region.

Addressing the meeting, Governor Mandago who is also the regional bloc chairman praised the Coordination of the National government saying it was promising compared to the previous years.

"This policy will see counties harmonise their tariffs across their regions among other vital undertakings that require joint initiatives such as Tourism development," said Mandago.

According to the county boss, establishment of the regional economic blocs could significantly contribute to accelerated development of the respective regions through joint projects and programmes particularly infrastructure.

The meeting was also attended by Elgeiyo Marakwet Governor H.E Eng. Alex Tolgos alongside Deputy Governors Stanely Tarus (Trans Nzoia), Peter Lotethiro (Turkana), Yulita Cheruiyot (Nandi) and representatives of Governors from Baringo, West Pokot and Samburu counties.

Mandago also defended NOREB over claims of being dormant and irrelevant to some of its member counties.

"We might have been slow but we are very sure and organised. Going by the planned establishment of the economic bloc, watch the space from now and see what we are going to do in this region," he noted while also challenging County Assemblies across the country to ensure they make laws that are in tandem with the development of their respective regions.

He said: "Nowadays, everything you do must be anchored in the law and this is why we are seeking the necessary legislation that can be an enabler to the realization of collaborative development across counties."

The Uasin Gishu Governor further reiterated the need to bring on board every elected leaders including Senators and Members of Parliament (MPs) from the region.

"By doing this, we will ensure that we are always transparent and at the same time we will have to agree to keep off politics from the economic bloc since any interference would spell doom," Mandago noted.

Governor Tolgos said; "I am happy that the National government and the County governments are now reading from the same script. You remember, in our first term, we would always disagree whenever we engaged. But since we are serving the same Wananchi, we have come to the reality of complementing each other for the benefit of our people."

CECM Trade Dr. Emily Kogos, NOREB CEO Dominic Biwott, County Attorney Stephen Lel, Economic Advisor Jonathan Tuwei and other county officials were in attendance. ... See MoreSee Less
