President William Ruto yesterday launched the Mau Forest Complex Integrated Conservation and Livelihood Improvement Programme in Nakuru County
“We have started the journey to restore the Mau Forest Complex as part of our plan to plant 15 billion trees in the country within the next 10 years,” he said during the ceremony.
He added, “To ensure this initiative is successful, we have adopted a whole-of-society approach, bringing together government, the private sector, and communities to plant and grow trees.”
Once restored, the more than 33,000-hectare complex will raise water levels in our rivers, boost food production, and support over 5 million livelihoods in Nakuru County and beyond.
