Eldoret makes bold step to being a city

The journey to conferment of city status to Eldoret town recently entered a crucial stage after the setting up of an ad hoc committee.

One of the key mandates of the committee is to draft a report on the status of the town to be elevated to the city status.

Once the report is complete, it will be forwarded to the Uasin Gishu County Assembly for deliberations.

The assembly will look at the report and later make a decision on whether to reject or adopt it.

If adopted, the report will be sent to the Senate and taken through the same process.

In the event the Senate adopts the report to confer Eldoret a city status, it will be forwarded to the President, who is mandated to give a charter to a city – as per the Urban and Cities Act.

The ad hoc committee that has representation from various stakeholders among them the Institution of Surveyors of Kenya, the Kenya Institute of Planners, the Architectural Association of Kenya, the Law Society of Kenya, the association of urban areas and cities, the Kenya National Chamber of Commerce and Industry as well as the Certified Public Accountants recently held a meeting with Uasin Gishu Deputy Governor Daniel Chemno.

During the meeting, Chemno challenged the committee to hasten the process so as to ensure Eldoet gets the city status as soon as possible.


He expressed optimism that the process will be complete by the end of this year.

“We have complied with all the requirements. We only expect government agencies to go through the report and approve the elevation,” Chemno told Uasin Gishu News.

“We have complied with all the requirements. We only expect government agencies to go through the report and approve the elevation,” he added.
