Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua on Monday, March 4, launched Makutano Huduma Centre in Laikipia County.
Speaking at Ngobit in Laikipia East, Laikipia County during the launch, Gachagua asked Kenyans to utilise Government services at Huduma Centres across the country.
Mr Gachagua noted that such facilities help the public access all government services under one roof.
"This Huduma Centre is very important. I have enjoyed their services. My National Identification Card will be ready in a few days. Birth certificates, National Health Insurance Fund, pension and other services are all available, he said after a tour of the facility," he stated.

The Deputy President added: “Indeed, the Makutano Facility is strategic. It will serve over 500,000 residents of Laikipia and the bordering Counties, whose Huduma Centres are far away. The fact that the facility has offered in-person assistance to over 1,100 customers since February 1, 2024, means there is dire need for service."
At the same time, Gachagua urged counties to move their services to Huduma centres for easy access alongside those of the National Government.
More than 130 services are available in 53 Huduma Centres in 33 counties. At least 60,000 people access services daily in the Huduma Centres.
