Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has said the economy is doing better, adding that the lower class can now sustain themselves.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Sunday during Thanksgiving service at Jesus Palace of Praise Church, Mwatate, Taita Taveta County, the DP noted that in the recent past, the Kenyan shilling was weak against the US dollar.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne dollar was equal to Sh165. Today our shilling is strong as a dollar is equal to Sh127,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen our shilling is strong, it shows that our economy is doing better because lower-class citizens can now manage their livelihoods.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kindiki attributed the economic transformation to policies initiated by President William Ruto, adding that inflation is at 2.7 per cent, being the lowest in 17 years.<\/p>\n

The DP went on to affirm the government\u2019s commitment to improving Kenyans\u2019 livelihoods.<\/p>\n

He urged the citizens to be patient as the government resolves the economic challenges through progressive economic policies.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe government is resolving the economic challenges and improving the livelihoods of our people by boosting their household incomes. We thank the Kenyan citizens for their patience,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

At the same time, Kindiki urged Kenyans to unite and set aside their differences to achieve the national goals.<\/p>\n

He said national unity is essential for the development of the country, adding that it is time Kenyans came together irrespective of their ethnic, social or political background.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is nothing more important than the unity of the Kenyan nation. Without peace, we have no chance of achieving our goals,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we are not united, we will not realise the objectives of this country. We must put aside our differences and work together as one nation. Our strength lies in our diversity, and it is only through unity that we can achieve the great potential that our country holds.\u201d<\/p>\n

The government has been working towards resolving the economic challenges through strategies under the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA), which led to a commitment to balanced, sustainable economic development.<\/p>\n

It has ensured that there are targeted reforms in key sectors including the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), housing, healthcare, agriculture and digital economy.<\/p>\n
