Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has assured Kenyans working and living abroad that the country is secure for development and that the economy has recovered.

Speaking on Saturday in Kigali Rwanda to over 400 members of the Kenyan Diaspora Community, the Deputy President urged Kenyans living abroad to invest in Kenya and purchase the government’s affordable houses. He stated that there is political stability in the country.

“Kenya’s security is high. Interior Cabinet Secretary Prof Kithure Kindiki has helped restore security in North Rift and Lamu. It will continue so that the government can create the right atmosphere to attract investment and tourism. Kenya is great again, we have political stability, everybody is busy and we are back on the right trajectory in terms of economic development,” said Mr Gachagua.

“Invest back in home and especially in the housing program. The houses are affordable and the mortgage is manageable and payable for long-term. You won’t even feel it,” he continued.

The DP also extended appreciation to the diaspora community for their participation and contributions to the event, recognizing their role as key stakeholders in driving economic growth.

He also acknowledged the leadership of High Commissioner Amb. Janet Oben and Chairman Boniface Mutua for their efforts in facilitating the dialogue session, emphasizing the importance of collaboration between the government and the diaspora community.
