Only one affordable housing project started under William Ruto is complete
Government reveals only 2 out of 78 affordable housing projects are complete with one having been started in 2021 under the Uhuru administration
Government reveals only 2 out of 78 affordable housing projects are complete with one having been started in 2021 under the Uhuru administration.
President William Ruto’s vision of delivering 200,000 housing units every year is increasingly becoming improbable due to the slow pace of construction of affordable housing projects.
In 2022 after assuming power, the Head of State promised to construct 1 million affordable housing units before the end of his first term in 2027.
Two years to the promise, only two affordable housing projects are complete with one having been started in 2021 by the former administration.
According to the government records, there are currently 78 affordable housing projects in different stages of construction.
Of the complete ones, the government has listed Buxton Point Mombasa Affordable Housing Phase 1 as ready for occupation with the units being located in Mvita Constituency.
Mombasa has three other incomplete housing projects in Mvita and Changamwe.
The second project which has been completed is Bondeni Affordable Housing in Nakuru County which was officially opened for occupation on January 2024.
Nakuru boasts of four affordable housing projects. Other projects in the county include Bahati, Karagita and Elburgon affordable housing projects.

The projects are: Bachelors Jeevanjee Estate, Pangani Housing Project, Mukuru Met Site Social Housing, Starehe Affordable Housing, Shauri Moyo A Affordable Housing Project, Kibera Soweto B Social Housing, and Shauri Moyo B Affordable Housing.
In Kisumu City, only one housing project has been launched by President Ruto – the Lumumba AHP Project, which remains incomplete.
Apart from Affordable Housing Units, the government is also in the process of constructing 146 markets across the country with over 90 percent of the markets yet to be completed.
