Official Launch of Three Digital Hubs in OlKalou Constituency

Yesterday, the Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Information, Communication and the Digital Economy, H.E, Hon. William Kabogo, EGH, joined the people of Ol Kalou Constituency in Nyandarua County to officially launch three digital hubs located in Wiyumiririe, Passenga, and Mirangine.

The hubs mark another significant milestone in the Government’s commitment to expanding digital access, creating employment opportunities, and empowering young people with the skills needed to thrive in the digital economy. The initiative is part of the national programme to establish digital hubs across the country to bridge the digital divide and ensure that no community is left behind in Kenya’s digital transformation journey.

Developed through a partnership between the Ministry of Information, Communications and the Digital Economy and the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF), the hubs will provide affordable internet connectivity, digital literacy training, access to online jobs, innovation spaces, and government digital services. The facilities are expected to serve as centres of innovation and entrepreneurship, enabling youth, students, and small businesses to acquire marketable digital skills and participate meaningfully in the digital economy.

The Government remains committed to accelerating job creation through ICT, expanding digital infrastructure, and fostering a knowledge-based economy that unlocks opportunities for all Kenyans. By bringing technology closer to communities, these hubs will play a vital role in enhancing digital inclusion, supporting innovation, and improving livelihoods across Nyandarua County and beyond.
