Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya has unveiled the county’s new ultra-modern headquarters building valued at Ksh500 million.
Speaking during the launch on Wednesday, July 23, Natembeya said the building will house all senior county officials, including County Executive Committee Members (CECs), Chief Officers, and Directors.
He added that the new headquarters is expected to streamline administrative functions and eliminate the reliance on rented spaces for meetings.
"All County Government services will be available in this building; all government officers, including County Executive Committee Members (CECs), Chief Officers and Directors, will be working from this building.
"In the case that I want to have a meeting with them I just summon them and they quickly avail themselves here in the boardroom; will no longer be hiring spaces for holding our meetings,” he said.

Natembeya also revealed that the new headquarters will introduce an attendance system for enhanced accountability among county staff.
The system includes biometric clocking for all staff members, including the governor himself.
"This building will also have a system where officers will be clocking in once they report for their respective duties and when they leave, including myself,” he added.
The launch comes a day after Natembeya returned to his office after a 60-day court-ordered ban over corruption allegations.
In a statement on Monday, July 21, he said he is stronger, more focused, and determined to serve the people of the county without distraction.
"After 60 days away, I’m back—recharged, focused, and ready to serve you with full force!" he declared.
Natembeya stated that his administration’s development agenda would not be derailed, further reaffirming his dedication to fulfilling the promises he made during his campaign.
“No one will shake our resolve to rewrite our story. We are determined to fulfill every campaign pledge and ensure that the people of Trans Nzoia continue to enjoy the benefits that devolution has brought. That is my promise," he added.
