KAJIADO, Kenya, June 5 – In alignment with global celebrations for World Environment Day under the theme, “Inspired by Nature: For Climate. For Our Future,” today’s commissioning of the new borehole at the General Service Unit Magadi Field Training College stands as a definitive milestone.
Spearheaded by Tessie Musalia, Patron and Chair Ushiriki Wema Foundation, the vital infrastructure project serves as a stark reminder that securing sustainable, clean water access is not merely a service delivery; it is a critical anchor for climate resilience, community empowerment and the proactive environmental stewardship necessary to safeguard resources for generations to come.
Through the ‘Kuzingatia Mazingira Yetu Journey’, the Ushiriki Wema Foundation and the National Police Service are rewriting the standards of institutional welfare by delivering fully-equipped, sustainable water infrastructure to major training hubs and barracks, the community-centric journey operates on a simple but unyielding premise: clean water is a necessity, not a privilege but a cornerstone of human dignity and national progress.
What began as a tree restoration program launched by President William Ruto in 2023 to grow 15 billion trees by the year 2032 has grown into a borehole infrastructure project speaking directly to Kenya’s Vision 2030 blueprint for equitable development; it also aligns with Kenya’s climate commitment, firmly placing Kenya among nations that are taking meaningful action in environmental global efforts.
“Together, We have successfully commissioned boreholes at the Kiganjo Police Campus in Nyeri, the Administration Police Campus Embakasi A and the General Service Unit Campus Embakasi B”, said Tessie Musalia, Chairperson Ushiriki Wema Foundation.
“Today, with the commissioning of this borehole at the GSU Magadi Field Training Campus, we mark the fourth project under this initiative”, she added.
Mrs Musalia commissioning the 4th borehole drilling at the NPS colleges to provide sustainable access to water to the colleges and surrounding communities.
Additionally, the initiative has been the work of partnerships for at Ushiriki Wema Foundation we believe strongly in collaborations as opposed to re-inventing the wheel.
She appreciated Regner Fu Capital Group (RFCG) under the apt stewardship of Mr. Kent Kagicha for without their partnership of borehole infrastructure program would not have seen the light of day.
“We also recognise that the borehole projects being implemented across police institutions represent far more than the provision of water”.
They are a commitment to the well-being of the men and women who serve and protect our nation, and a reaffirmation of our belief that development and dignity must always go hand in hand.
By expanding access to a reliable and sustainable water supply, we are supporting healthier, more resilient institutions and creating an environment where those in service can truly thrive.
“To the brave men and women stationed here at the GSU Magadi Field Training Campus: your unwavering dedication does not go unnoticed, and your sacrifices in this harsh terrain do not go unappreciated”.
Mrs Musalia noted that the borehole stands as a tangible promise that they are seen, valued and supported by the community they protect.
“May this clean water ease the daily hardships of your deployment, bringing comfort to your camp and renewed strength to your spirits as you continue your noble mission of safeguarding our nation”.
