THIKA, A NEW BABY IS BORN!

Thika Town residents yesterday afternoon welcomed the birth of a new baby, the Huduma Centre Kiambu County which opened its doors to the public Wednesday afternoon.

Jubilant wananchi who attended the grand opening were taken through the procedure of acquiring services in order to familiarlise them with the systems. Those we talked to were overwhelmed with joy and were optimistic that their long wait for accessible government services was now a part of their history. They thanked the Jubilee Government and Madam Ann Waiguru for digitizing essential services saying that this would go a long way in easing their lives.

"This is great! When I see what great deeds Former CS Waiguru did, I weep and I am very emotional that we keep whipping the same donkey carrying us and our load. Anyway, Karibu Thika Huduma Kenya and feel at home," said one resident who sells mitumba just across the road.

The Centre is located at the Deputy County Commissioner's (formerly known as the District Commissioner) office on Stadium Road, opposite Thika Sub-County Stadium.

Kiambu people can now enjoy government services such as acquisition of IDs, birth certificates, Passports, drivers Licenses, KRA PINs, Business Registration, NHIF & NSSF services etc all of which enable everyone, regardless of their physical stature, to access efficient government services in a conducive environment that is devoid of long queues, inconveniences and delays. In fact, Huduma Kenya has facilitated digital service delivery to Kenyans.
