More than 700 women drawn from 15 widows’ groups in East Kamagak Ward, Kasipul Constituency, Homa Bay County, have been empowered through an initiative spearheaded by PS Dr Raymond Omollo.

The initiative seeks to support widows economically and improve the livelihoods of vulnerable women in the community.

The beneficiaries expressed appreciation for the support, with the message from Homa Bay being clear: “Round ni mbili za Rais William Ruto.”

The women thanked PS Dr Raymond Omollo and President William Ruto for supporting grassroots empowerment programmes.
