Suneka Airstrip will enhance connectivity, facilitate business and investment, and reduce the need for residents to travel long distances to access air transport services.

The government has reaffirmed its commitment to inclusive development across all regions, stating that ongoing investments in infrastructure, education, healthcare, and public administration are aimed at ensuring no community is left behind in the country’s development agenda.
Speaking during a church service at Suneka District SDA Church in Bonchari Constituency, Kisii County, Interior PS Raymond Omollo said the government remains focused on inclusive and equitable development aimed at improving the welfare of all Kenyans regardless of their region, ethnicity, or political affiliation.
Omollo emphasised that development can only thrive in a peaceful and stable environment and urged citizens to reject violence, destruction of property, and political intolerance, and instead embrace dialogue, unity, and constructive engagement as key ingredients for sustainable development.
“The transformation of our country requires partnership between the government, the church, community leaders and citizens. When we work together, we can build stronger communities, create more opportunities for our people and secure a brighter future for generations to come,” he said.
He further announced that the contractor hired for the upgrading of Suneka Airstrip will commence works soon, following the conclusion of the necessary groundwork.
The project will enhance connectivity, facilitate business and investment, and reduce the need for residents to travel long distances to access air transport services.
Some of the projects the government has undertaken to promote development include the recruitment of more than 100,000 teachers to improve access to quality education and enhance learning outcomes for children across the country.
The PS urged parents to complement government efforts by prioritising education and ensuring that children remain in school while also participating in faith-based programmes that promote discipline, integrity, and responsible citizenship.
For Kisii County, Omollo explained that the government is fast-tracking the operationalisation of several gazetted administrative units within Bonchari Constituency and other parts of the county to improve access to critical services such as national identification cards, birth certificates, and other public services.
He also called upon residents to register under the Social Health Authority (SHA), noting that increased enrollment will ensure more families benefit from affordable and accessible healthcare services.
The SDA church also hosted a fundraising event in support of its ongoing development initiatives.
