“In Mandera, child mortality
has halved due to the county’s
investment in medical facilities.
We owe that success, first and
foremost, to the diligence of our
people; and to the leaders here,
and their predecessors. I extend
our warmest thanks to you all
for this success so far”.

“I have always known the
Mandera Stadium, but today
as I was entering the venue, I
wondered whether it was Nyayo
Stadium in Nairobi! I would
like to thank Governor Ali Roba
for proper utilization of money
allocated to the county on
development.”

During an official visit to
Mandera in May 2016

“Radicalization of the youth is a legitimate and significant concern among all peace
loving Kenyans. I am optimistic that radicalization, extremism and terrorism can be
defeated through development, resolution of inequities and ensuring basic services and
human rights for all.
“As part of these efforts, I note that the Mandera County Referral Hospital has been
refurbished from its formerly dilapidated state. It has emerged from the ashes into a very
good hospital facility.”
