National transformation is never a destination reached once. It is a continuous process of reflection, adaptation and reinvention guided by shared aspirations and an unwavering commitment to a better future. At State House Nairobi, received a report on reflections and proposals on strategic guidelines for Kenya's long-term national transformation beyond Vision 2030. We commend Kisumu Prof Anyang' Nyong'o, who is also the governor of Kisumu, and his team of independent economic scholars for their diligence, intellectual rigour and patriotism in preparing this report. We are encouraged that many of the recommendations resonate with the strategic direction we have already embarked upon, including the establishment of the National Infrastructure Fund, the Sovereign Wealth Fund and other transformative initiatives aimed at accelerating inclusive and sustainable development. The next chapter of Kenya's development cannot be written by Government alone. It will be shaped by the collective wisdom, experience and participation of the Kenyan people. Together, through open dialogue, innovation and shared purpose, we will define a bold and enduring vision that secures greater prosperity, opportunity and dignity for every citizen.(William Samoei Ruto, PhD)
