Principal Secretary (PS) Raymond Omollo for Internal Security has helped build a home for a widow who was living in a mud house.
Rose Obuya, a 38-year-old widow and mother of five, received a newly built, fully furnished house, offering her family a stable and dignified home after years of hardship.
Previously, she lived in a crumbling mud-walled structure and struggled to shield her children from the daily challenges of rain, cold, and insecurity.
Her life took a turn when she received a permanent home equipped with bedding, household items, and kitchen essentials.
