In Kajiado County, 14 markets are currently under construction as part of a nationwide market infrastructure programme aimed at supporting local trade. Additionally, electricity connectivity projects valued at over KSh 700 million are being implemented to connect 4,000 new households across the county. Kajiado West Constituency has been allocated KSh 125 million for the connection of additional households to the national grid.
