The County government of Nandi in partnership with Operation Eyesight Universal have distributed over one hundred hand washing containers to people living with disabilities in Emgwen sub-county.
Speaking during the distribution, Nandi deputy governor Dr Yulita Cheruiyot lauded what the partnership has led to, revealing that the beneficiaries were identified by community health workers and volunteers during a Covid-19 house to house awareness drive. Dr Cheruiyot said after she received messages of concern, she partnered with the organization to donate the hand washing water containers.
She said the move will benefit the needy from the entire County, with those from remaining sub counties also set to receive the water containers. She asked Nandi residents to continue playing their part in the fight against Coronavirus and also to take extra measures to avoid contracting the virus.
