CEC Dr. Ruth D. Masha and Chief Officer Ms Agnetta Karembo expressed their strong endorsement for local entrepreneurs and creatives during the recent Nunua Kilifi Trade Fair, a highly anticipated event in Kilifi County.
The fair showcased a diverse range of products and services from various industries, facilitating networking and collaboration among business owners and professionals. This endeavor not only showcases the talent and potential of Kilifi but also stimulates economic growth and development in the region.
During her tour of the booths as the CEC, she emphasized the significance of such events in mobilizing the community, particularly youth and women, towards economic empowerment.
