A total of 39 youths from Rhoda Ward, Nakuru Town West sub-county, have completed a basic computer skills training program, earning certificates that mark a significant step toward digital empowerment.
The initiative, made possible through the County Government of Nakuru’s bursary program, reflects Governor Susan Kihika’s commitment to equipping young people with essential digital skills to enhance their employability and unlock new opportunities in today’s technology-driven world.
During the certificate issuance ceremony, area MCA Hon. Macharia Gachiri lauded the County Government’s dedication to advancing tertiary education, noting that this initiative would not have been possible without Governor Kihika’s increased bursary allocation.
