Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Heads of state corporations under the Ministry of Energy have been challenged to go beyond their call of duty and the performance contracts to deliver on the government mandate.<\/p>\n

They have further been called upon to apply all tricks to achieve the best results in the interest of serving Kenyans and realising the government\u2019s manifesto.<\/p>\n

Speaking during the signing of performance contracts by heads of corporations under her ministry as required by the government, Water CS Alice Wahome affirmed her confidence in the team saying they have the ability and capacity to roll out government projects with minimum wastage, cost and delay.<\/p>\n

The process was overseen by Wahome, PS Water and Sanitation Dr Paul Rono and PS Irrigation Gitonga Mugambi at Maji House. The heads of the corporations have also been asked to cascade the monitoring and evaluation through PCs to their respective places of work.<\/p>\n

This comes after Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi directed that ministries submit their revised 2022-23 performance contracts. The government uses performance contracts to measure accountability and task fulfilment among civil servants.<\/p>\n

Universal access to clean water and sanitation remains a challenge to the country. It is interlinked with other Sustainable Development Goals, which include No poverty, Zero hunger, Good health and well-being, Quality Education, Gender equality, Reduced inequalities and Climate action.<\/p>\n

The Constitution of Kenya 2010 mandates the government to ensure access to safe, clean and adequate water for all Kenyans. Kenya Vision 2030 also reiterates universal access to safe, clean, adequate water and sanitation for all Kenyans.<\/p>\n

The water coverage since 1963 in the country is about 60 per cent (31.1 million) mainly in densely populated areas while the coverage for sewerage is 26 per cent in urban areas since 1963.<\/p>\n

The non-revenue water, that is water not accounted for is 42 per cent and estimated at Sh.10.6 billion due to technical and commercial challenges. The average usage of water is approximately 40 litres per person per day in rural Kenya and 120 litres in urban areas while the average cost of water is Sh1 per litre.<\/p>\n
