Nairobi 12th April 2018
Plans underway to develop Muthurwa Market.
Muthurwa Market is one of the Nairobi markets earmarked for Development by the National Government and World Bank development plan in creating better and modern markets.
The Nairobi County Ag.Director of Markets Mr Githaiga held a consultative meeting today with Muthurwa Market Committee Members and the project consultants in City Hall to chat the way forward on improving the status of the market. "Muthurwa Market was meant for hawkers and does not meet the traders' standards,hence the reason why the County proposed it for fresh development". Said Githaiga.
In attendance was Starehe Member of County Assembly Mr Ngengi. City Hall is planning to host another consultative meeting with all key stakeholders and Muthurwa Market traders to come up with possible ways to ensure the success of the project which will cost 150 Million. Already, the consultants are on the ground carrying out Resettlement Action Plan which looks at the impact of the affected persons, vulnerable groups, infrastructure among other things.
