Throughout the period, it&#8217;s clear that the nation has gone through  drastic changes since<br>since its assumption to power, beginning from the economic sector to political development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>In order to promote food security, the administration has lauded the subsidised fertiliser programme,<br>with more than five million farmers nationwide. Joshua, an agro-dealer and a farmer in<br>Bungoma says,&#8221;Low income farmers were able to acquire the cheap fertilizer shunning the regular<br>fertilizer which was being sold at a higher price.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government has positively aided this sector by availing cheap and affordable fertilizer to these<br>farmers.The fertilizer specifically for planting and topdressing,goes for only Ksh.3500 per 50kg bag,an<br>action that has seen about 90% of farmers back to their farms.Regular fertilizer i.e. from retail was sold<br>at Ksh.6000-Ksh.6500 between January and April.&#8221;However,the introduction of cereal fertilizer led to<br>poor sales of the regular fertilizer.&#8221;Joshua added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/unnamed-7.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-376\" width=\"840\" height=\"1049\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Fig 1.2 A photo of regular and cereal fertilizers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, a 2kg packet of maize flour was retailing at KSh230 in September last year Surprisingly,the price reduced drastically to  155\/= and210\/= in many shops and supermarkets.<br>Since Kenya Kwanza came into power, the Kenyan security has remained stable. Despite<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>some incidents of insecurity occuring in various places,there has never been  intense.<br>The government has improved the fight against corruption in many ways especially in government<br>agencies.The administration has shown its full responsibility to fight the pandemic by appointing<br>government officials only by their qualifications and not basing on political background. Martin, a<br>consultant who works in the office of Namawale Advocate in Bungoma says,&#8221;The government has<br>done its best in ensuring the eradication of corruption in the country<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/unnamed-8.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-377\" width=\"840\" height=\"569\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Fig 1.3 Martin Wanyonyi, A Consultant in Namawale Advocate office , Bungoma Town<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The appointment of an independent accounting officer, who is not a member of the Office of the<br>President, was a huge achievement.&#8221;The government should continue in the same spirit of fighting<br>corruption to ensure Kenya remains a corruption free zone.He narrated.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both locally and nationally, the government has been unyielding in its infrastructure policies.By building and maintaining roads, it is evident that this issue is no longer a cause for concern.<br>In comparison to the previous administration, there were more complaints about the state of the roads, which resulted in an increase in accidents and traffic congestion.Currently, overspeeding drivers are the main cause of accidents because they believe the roads are wider and more smooth, allowing them to arrive at their destination in the least amount of time.Both locally and nationally, the government has been unyielding in its infrastructure policies.By building and maintaining roads, it is evident that this issue is no longer a cause for concern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government has upheld it&#8217;s promise to help Kenyans by the advent of Hustler fund. Addressing the<br>public in this years Madaraka Day,the president said, &#8220;Sh29 billion in loans from the Hustler Fund and<br>Sh1.5 billion in savings by 16 million Kenyans has already been paid.&#8221;Meanwhile Kenyans showed a large<br>threshold of positivity towards the plan<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-post-featured-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"512\" height=\"374\" src=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/unnamed-9-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" style=\"object-fit:cover;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/unnamed-9-1.jpg 512w, https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/unnamed-9-1-300x219.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>Fig 1.4 President William on Madaraka Day<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also referred to as a significant accomplishment that the port operations were moved from Naivasha in Nakuru County to Mombasa.In addition to the ones already built in Naivasha, other economic zones are also being created in the counties of Busia, Kirinyaga, Uasin Gishu, and Mombasa.<br>Other accomplishments comprise<br>1. settling county obligations<br>2. timely receipt of county allocations<br>3. enhancing public health industries<br>4. Increasing global rations<br>5. supporting cultural and sporting activities<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Improving fight against poor religious practices such as the Shakahola massacre<br>Importing goods through the Kenya National Trading Corporation has helped stabilise prices for basic<br>goods.However, only 20 percent of Kenyans consume processed unga, with the rest being first-hand<br>producers.<br>According to the plan, Kenya should be a middle-income economy by 2030. The country\u2019s GDP greatly<br>improved during the Kibaki era.However,it probably won&#8217;t be a dream come true regarding the current<br>trend of the Kenyan economy.This is a great shortcoming in the current administration.<br>Compared to the previous governments,The Kibaki administration sought bilateral and multilateral pacts<br>that saw increased export markets and battled market distortions and imperfections.<br>However, some of the \u201cachievements\u201d in the list are still judicial pending such as the Finance Bill 2023.<br>Kenya Kwanza pet project, the Housing Fund, will guarantee that thousands of Kenyans have access to<br>adequate housing.As stated by Mr. Gachagua, 36,000 apartments are now being built, and 41 of 47<br>counties have donated 4,000 acres for more.He baptised the levy \u201cmandatory patriotism\u201d, saying the<br>employed would help jobless people earn a living.However,the president failed to put across and make<br>it clear if the levy was really a tax or an investment.<br>The effects of multiple of its executed programs, including as the eradication of subsidies and the government-to-government oil agreements, have not yet been completely felt by regular Kenyans.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from the unfinished financial bill, the president&#8217;s failure to defend the 50 Chief Administrative Secretaries he nominated is another example of his shortcomings.They were chosen by the president with the intention of assisting the present Cabinet Secretaries in carrying out their duties.The high court, however, rejected the nomination, claiming it violated the constitution.<br>In response to the Trade Minister&#8217;s disparaging remarks about the media, the administration has not taken any action against him.The president was supposed to oppose the action while being a part of the administration, but he seemed to take it so lightly.<br>Malicious speech has appeared to be an epidemic that has been affecting practically all government stakeholders.Regarding the deputy president&#8217;s statement that &#8220;shareholders own this country,&#8221; more questions were raised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unexpectedly, when the president was contacted by the media to comment on this, he rejected and directed them to the person who owned the phrase.He didn&#8217;t have the money to say anything in opposition to that, apparently because it was an ally.<br>There have been instances of human rights violations during its nine-month rule, with demonstrators losing their lives and property being lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The measure was rejected by a sizable portion of Kenyans, yet it was nevertheless passed by the parliament.He considered winning the majority in the parliament to be a success, although his government has made little forward with the public&#8217;s input.<br>1. Additional flaws include<br>2. faulty methods for earning revenue<br>3. not delivering on his promises in a timely manner<br>4. deteriorating relations with the opposition<br>5. delayed reorganization of the IEBC selection committee<br>6. Even when the nation collapses in its first year <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kwanza government of Kenya.<br>Even as Kenya Kwanza&#8217;s first year in office comes to a close, there is still a speck in the government&#8217;s eye due to the judicial suspension of its revenue-generating bill, which also sparked intense criticism from its shareholders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kenyans have seen big changes since the advent of the Kenya Kwanza government for the past ninemonths.
