limited social protections associated with informal jobs are raising concerns about economic inequality and long-term development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kenya&#8217;s GDP growth slowed to 4.7% in 2024, down from 5.7% in 2023. Despite this slowdown, the nominal GDP increased, indicating continued economic expansion. Global economic pressures, as highlighted by the IMF&#8217;s forecast of a worldwide GDP decline to 2.8% in 2025, have contributed to Kenya&#8217;s sluggish growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several major industries faced challenges in 2024. Agriculture saw a decline in growth to 4.4%, impacting food security and exports. The construction sector also experienced setbacks, with a drop in the number of affordable housing units completed compared to the previous year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-contrast-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5dc533f00d7fee12fc894e6c0e2a3e9b is-content-justification-space-between is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-fefaeca0 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\"><h1 class=\"wp-block-site-title has-large-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"home\">Tandao Media<\/a><\/h1>\n\n<nav class=\"has-large-font-size is-responsive items-justified-right wp-block-navigation is-content-justification-right is-layout-flex wp-container-core-navigation-is-layout-3817c3ed wp-block-navigation-is-layout-flex\" \n\t\t data-wp-interactive=\"core\/navigation\" data-wp-context='{\"overlayOpenedBy\":{\"click\":false,\"hover\":false,\"focus\":false},\"type\":\"overlay\",\"roleAttribute\":\"\",\"ariaLabel\":\"Menu\"}'><button aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-label=\"Open menu\" class=\"wp-block-navigation__responsive-container-open\" \n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.openMenuOnClick\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-on--keydown=\"actions.handleMenuKeydown\"\n\t\t\t><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M4 7.5h16v1.5H4z\"><\/path><path d=\"M4 15h16v1.5H4z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-navigation__responsive-container\"  id=\"modal-2\" \n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-class--has-modal-open=\"state.isMenuOpen\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-class--is-menu-open=\"state.isMenuOpen\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-watch=\"callbacks.initMenu\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-on--keydown=\"actions.handleMenuKeydown\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-on--focusout=\"actions.handleMenuFocusout\"\n\t\t\t\ttabindex=\"-1\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-navigation__responsive-close\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-navigation__responsive-dialog\" \n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-modal=\"state.ariaModal\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.ariaLabel\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--role=\"state.roleAttribute\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button aria-label=\"Close menu\" class=\"wp-block-navigation__responsive-container-close\" \n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.closeMenuOnClick\"\n\t\t\t><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"m13.06 12 6.47-6.47-1.06-1.06L12 10.94 5.53 4.47 4.47 5.53 10.94 12l-6.47 6.47 1.06 1.06L12 13.06l6.47 6.47 1.06-1.06L13.06 12Z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-navigation__responsive-container-content\" \n\t\t\t\tdata-wp-watch=\"callbacks.focusFirstElement\"\n\t\t\t id=\"modal-2-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"wp-block-navigation__container has-large-font-size is-responsive items-justified-right wp-block-navigation has-large-font-size\"><ul class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-page-list\"><li class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item wp-block-navigation-item open-on-hover-click\"><a class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item__link wp-block-navigation-item__content\" href=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/index.php\/89-2\/\">(no title)<\/a><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item wp-block-navigation-item open-on-hover-click\"><a class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item__link wp-block-navigation-item__content\" href=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/index.php\/robert-wanyonyi-youtube\/\">ROBERT WANYONYI YOUTUBE<\/a><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item wp-block-navigation-item open-on-hover-click\"><a class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item__link wp-block-navigation-item__content\" href=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/index.php\/sample-page-2\/\">Sample Page<\/a><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item wp-block-navigation-item open-on-hover-click\"><a class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item__link wp-block-navigation-item__content\" href=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/index.php\/sample-page\/\">Sample Page<\/a><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item wp-block-navigation-item open-on-hover-click\"><a class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item__link wp-block-navigation-item__content\" href=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/index.php\/youtube-channel\/\">YOUTUBE CHANNEL<\/a><\/li><li class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item wp-block-navigation-item open-on-hover-click\"><a class=\"wp-block-pages-list__item__link wp-block-navigation-item__content\" href=\"https:\/\/tandaomedia.co.ke\/index.php\/youtube-channel-2\/\">YOUTUBE CHANNEL<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><\/nav><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Various domestic and global pressures have contributed to Kenya&#8217;s economic challenges. High debt servicing costs, persistently high interest rates, social unrest following protests against the 2024 Finance Bill, extreme weather events, and global trade tensions have all played a role in the economic slowdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the current difficulties, there is optimism for economic recovery in 2025. Improved agricultural output, favorable weather conditions, and the implementation of subsidies are expected to drive growth. As Kenya navigates these economic hurdles, policymakers and businesses must focus on strengthening formal employment, stabilizing key industries and enhancing resilience against global economic shifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-background-color has-white-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color
