Ruto anathibitisha ujenzi wa uwanja wa ndege wa Suneka wa Ksh400 milioni kuanza Jumatano

Rais William Ruto ametangaza kuwa ujenzi wa Uwanja wa Ndege wa Suneka katika Kaunti ya Kisii utaanza Aprili 15, na yeye mwenyewe atafanya sherehe ya kuanza kazi. Mradi wa Ksh400 milioni unalenga kusasisha uwanja mdogo uliopo ili kuruhusu safari za anga za kibiashara na kuimarisha uchumi wa eneo la Nyanza.

Rais William Ruto aliongea wakati wa ziara yake ya siku tatu ya maendeleo katika Kitutu Chache, Kaunti ya Kisii, Aprili 13. Alisema kuwa "Siku moja kesho nitakuja hapa mwenyewe kufanya sherehe ya kuanza kazi ya Uwanja wa Ndege wa Suneka, ambao umesimamishwa kwa miaka mingi."

Rais alithibitisha kuwa mradi utachukua miezi minane kukamilika na serikali imepata fedha za kuanza. "Wakati huo hatukuwa na pesa kwa mradi. Sasa tuna pesa za kuanza mradi, ili watu wa Kisii wapate urahisi wa kusafiri sehemu mbalimbali za nchi na dunia," aliongeza Ruto.

Uwanja wa Suneka utabadilishwa kutoka uwanja mdogo kuwa uwanja kamili wa kibiashara, pamoja na upanuzi wa njia ya kutua na kisasa cha vifaa. Hapo awali, serikali ilitafuta eneo jipya lakini matatizo ya kupata ardhi yalifanya wacheze na eneo lililopo.

Mradi huu umekuwa ukisimamishwa tangu enzi za Rais Uhuru Kenyatta, ambapo Gavana James Ongwae alitoa memorandum. Pia, kampuni kadhaa za anga ziliwasiliana na Kaunti ya Kisii kwa haki za kusimamia baada ya utafiti wa fizibiliti.
