The Affordable Housing Programme (AHP) will be among those receiving significant funding.

The draft Budget Policy Statement (BPS) for the 2026/27 fiscal year indicates that Kenya's government under President William Ruto will allocate more than half of the budget to priority projects. These focus on key areas such as housing, education, health, and infrastructure.

The Affordable Housing Programme (AHP) will be a major recipient of funding, reflecting the government's commitment to providing affordable homes for citizens. Education and health sectors will also receive substantial support to improve public services.
