Lamu Deputy Governor HE Raphael Munyua has on Thursday represented Governor Issa Timamy at the official handing over of construction of County Headquarters from the State Department for Public Works to Lamu County in Nairobi.

Lamu, Nyandarua, Tharaka Nithi, Isiolo and Tana River counties did not inherit adequate facilities that could accommodate the new administration at the onset of devolution, and their construction is at different levels of completion.

The allocation for the construction of the county headquarters is intended to promote devolution by ensuring that the counties have the appropriate infrastructure necessary to perform their respective functions.
