FOREWORD
The Constitution of Kenya 2010 established two tier governance systems with a national government and 47 county governments. The
County Government Act 2012 stipulates the need for all counties to prepare five-year County Integrated Development Plans (CIDPs)
which replaces District Development Plans (DDPs) that used to guide development under former constitutional dispensation. These
plans are expected to integrate county governments’ functions as specified in the Fourth Schedule of the Constitution and on relevant
national policies.
In view of the constitutional requirements and the need to promote the welfare of our residents, I am proud to present the West Pokot
Second County Integrated Development Plan that will cover the period 2018-2022. This is a blueprint that will guide future development
agenda of our county. The Plan will form a basis for appropriating county public funds and integrates economic, physical, social,
environmental and spatial aspects of our county. The Plan preparation has been guided by the Constitution, aspirations of Kenya Vision
2030 and its Third Medium Term Plan (MTP 2018-2022).

The County Government under my leadership recognises the existence of socio-economic challenges affecting our residents that includes
poverty, rampant insecurity, poor infrastructure and effects of climate change and will over the Plan period work tirelessly to promote
the welfare of all residents. West Pokot CIDP 2018-2022 outlines programmes and projects aimed at address these challenges and in
overall spur economic growth and development of our county.
By implementing the programs and policies under the County Economic Transformation Agenda, we are laying a solid foundation for
County’s industrialization as envisaged in the Vision 2030. Building on the progress made this far, we aim to address the remaining
bottlenecks that continue to hold our economy from achieving its full potential by focusing on “The 3E’s” Plan over the next five years.
The plan targets to;

i. Increase access, retention and completion levels in pre-primary education, primary, secondary and post-secondary education by
at least 100 percent by 2022;
2
 ii. Support value addition and contribute the manufacturing sector’s share to GDP to 15 percent by 2022. This will accelerate
economic growth, create jobs and reduce poverty;

iii. Focus on initiatives that guarantee food security and nutrition to all residents by 2022 through expansion of food production and
supply, provision of incentives and subsidies to attract investments and support value addition in the food processing value chain;

iv. Ensuring equity in all socio-economic opportunities and protection of marginalized groups;

v. Support provision of Universal Health Coverage thereby guaranteeing quality and affordable healthcare to all County residents.

Under this Plan, the county government will put in place strategies to make West Pokot a destination of choice for all investors and will
seek to accelerate investment in the areas of trade, industry, farming and tourism.
The objective of this Plan will be to create a platform for informed decision making; create an environment for robust economic
development; building social cohesion and further ensuring that within the county we realise our vision of working together in
development and growth. The Plan contains programmes and projects designed with great consideration to promoting equitable
distribution of resources within our county. Over the medium term period, the county government will implement programmes and
projects aimed at improving our infrastructure, health-care services, education, environmental conservation, agricultural value addition
and disaster risk management. Employment creation and promotion of entrepreneurial culture especially for the youth and women will
also be a priority of my county government. These aspirations will be achieved through a public sector led, private sector driven and
community based development approach.
The county government under my able County Executive, County Assembly and County Staff will strive to build strong and efficient
institutions to drive our development course. The County Assembly is a legislative organ and will play an oversight role on all County
public institutions including the urban areas. In order to successfully implement this Plan, the county will pursue prudent financial
management practises as outlined in the Public Finance Management Act 2012. The county will promote revenue collection to
3
supplement allocations from the national government and ensure resources are prudently utilized during implementation of this Plan.
My government will ensure efficient public service delivery with high level of integrity to enable our people reap the fruits of devolution
Recognizing the importance of all stakeholders in development of our county, the Plan was prepared through wide consultative process
as required by Article 10 of the Constitution. Public consultations were undertaken in all sub-counties to collect views that informed the
formulation of policies, programmes and projects outlined in this Plan. Going forward, successful implementation of our development
priorities will require collaborative approach and a sense of responsibility by all stakeholders. Our county government will also work
closely with the national government, neighbouring, and all other county governments in fostering our development agenda through
building synergies and benefiting from varying comparative advantages.
I therefore call upon all county residents, development partners, private sector players and all other stakeholders to commit themselves
to play an important role in the implementation of this plan, so that our county moves forward to a prosperous future. The County
government under my leadership on its part is committed to coordinating successful implementation of this plan. I strongly believe
working together for this common course will take our county to greater heights of development and contribute to our Kenya Vision of
being a rapidly industrializing, middle-income country by 2030, offering all its citizens a high quality of life

 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This County Integrated Development Plan is the second publication produced by the county government of West Pokot and its
stakeholders. It is the new medium term county development blueprint and is motivated by a collective aspiration for a better society by
end of the planned period. The plan has been carefully prepared and informed by the Kenyan vision 2030 that aims to transform Kenya
into a newly industrializing; middle income country providing a high quality of life to all its citizens in a clean and secure
environment.Simultaneously, the plan aims to accelerate the realization of the SDGs for county residents by 2030. Its implementation
will be through annual rolling work plan starting from the period 2018/2019.

The plan is devided into six chapters. The first chapter provides an overview of the county in terms of its locsation,area,administrative
and political units,demographic and settlement patterns and natural conditions.It also provides information on the current state of
infrastructure; land and land use;community organizations/non-state actors;crop, livestock and fish production;forestry amd agro-
forestry;environment and climate change;mining;tourism;industry;employment and other sources of income;water and sanitation;health
and nutrition;education and literacy;and private sectors competitiveness.

The Second Chapter discusses the linkages with Vision 2030, International Commitments and Other Plans.These plans include the
SDGs, Agenda 2063, Ending Drought Emergencies, Constitution of Kenya 2010 and the Medium Term Plan III.Chapter Three provides
the review of implementation of the previous CIDP (2013-2017)

The County Spatial Framework is provided in Chapter Four which identifies development projects and programmes and locates them
on specific geographic areas in the county.Chapter five outlines the county institutional framework and organizational flow chart that
will be followed in implementing the plan.It outlines the stakeholders in the county, and the roles that they play and how their functions
are intergrated to avoid duplication of efforts.

Chapter Six provides the monitoring and evaluation mechanism that facilitates the realization of the identified goals, objectives and
targets. It specifically identifies verifiable M&E indicators that will be used to monitor programmes and projects, and sets medium term
milestones for impact assessment.

In summary, this Plan will provide basis for strong linkage between policy, planning and budgeting and the spring board for realizing
socioeconomic transformation under the new devolved structures.

 CHAPER ONE: COUNTY GENERAL INFORMATION

1.0: County Overview

This chapter gives background information about the county in terms of its location, area, administrative and political units, physical
features description, settlement patterns, demographic features and status of key sectors of county economy.

1.1: Position and Size

West Pokot County is one of the 14 Counties in the Rift Valley region. It is situated in the North Rift along Kenya’s Western boundary
with Uganda border. It borders Turkana County to the North and North East, Trans Nzoia County to the South, Elgeyo Marakwet County
and Baringo County to the South East and east respectively. The County lies within Longitudes 34° 47’and 35° 49’East and Latitude 1°
and 2° North and covers an area of approximately 9,169.4 km2

Figure 1: Location of the County in Kenya

16
1.2: Physiographic and Natural Conditions
1.2.1: Physical and Topographic features

The county is characterized by a variety of topographic features. On the northern and north eastern parts are the dry plains, with an
altitude of less than 900 m above sea level. On the southeastern part are Cherangani Hills with an altitude of 3,370 m above sea level.
Landscapes associated with this range of altitude include spectacular escarpments of more than700 m. The high altitude areas have high
agricultural potential while medium altitude areas lie between 1,500 m and 2,100 m above sea level and receive low rainfall in addition
to being predominantly pastoral land. The low altitude areas include Alale, Kacheliba, Kongelai, Masol and parts of Sigor. These areas
are prone to soil erosion due to flash floods.

1.2.2: Ecological Conditions

The main forests in the county are found in Cherangani Hills. The gazetted forest, which forms part of the Cherangani Hills in Lelan,
covers an area of 20,857 ha. The un-gazetted forest covers 15,719 ha and consists of rain forests blocks scattered all over the county.
These are natural forests dominated by tree species like cedar (Juniperous procera) and bamboo (Aredinaria alpina). Plantation forests
cover an area of 662 ha of which approximately 34 ha are indigenous and the rest exotic.

The main rivers in the county are Suam, Kerio, Weiwei and Muruny. Cherangani Hills are the main source of Muruny and Weiwei
rivers, while Mt Elgon is the main source of river Suam. River Muruny, Kerio and Weiwei drain northwards into Lake Turkana, while
other small rivers join and drain into River Nzoia which in turn drains into Lake Victoria. River Suam drains into Turkwel dam that
generates hydro-electric power.

1.2.3: Climatic Conditions

The county has a bimodal type of rainfall. The long rains fall between April and August while the short rains fall between October and
February. There is, however, great variation in the total amount and distribution of the rainfall received in the county. The lowlands
receive 600 mm per annum while the highlands receive 1,600 mm per annum.

17
The county also experience great variations in temperature with the lowlands experiencing temperatures of up to 300 C and the highlands
experiencing moderate temperatures of 150 C. These high temperatures in the lowlands cause high evapo-transpiration which is un-
favourable for crop production. The high altitude areas with moderate temperatures experience high rainfall and low evapo-transpiration
hence suitable for crop production.

1.3: Administrative and Political Units

1.3.1: Administrative sub divisions (Sub Counties, Wards, Villages)

West Pokot County has four constituencies, 20 wards, 16 divisions, 65 locations and 224 sub locations. The table below presents the
existing administrative units in terms of Sub-Counties, Divisions, Locations and Sub locations

West Pokot County has two major urban areas namely; Kapenguria and Cheperaria as per the provisions of Section 9 and 10 of the
Urban Areas and Cities Act, 2012. Currently, 18.6 percent of county residents live in urban areas as per the 2009 census. This urban
population is projected to grow by 30 percent and 55 percent by 2022 and 2030 respectively. Majority of this urban population comprises
of people aged between 15 to 64 years who are economically active.The main economic activities in the county urban areas include:
retail and wholesale trading, fresh produce and cereals businesses, entertainment and hospitality businesses, service industries including
motor garages, cyber cafes, law firms, livestock auctions, private education businesses, honey processing, banking and financial services,
real estate enterprises and road transport services.
County urban areas in West Pokot face a myriad of development challenges. The urban areas lack county policy on urban planning and
development control, County Urban Integrated Development Plans and local physical development plans. Most roads are not all weather
with poor drainage system and consequently pose major transport challenge during rainy seasons. There is also no designated solid
waste dumpsite. The existing temporary dumpsite is poorly located since it is on a riparian area. The county also lacks liquid sewerage
system. Poverty and unemployment levels are also high.
1.4.2: Population Density and Distribution

Population distribution in the county is influenced by climatic conditions and socio-economic development. Urban areas and high
potential agricultural areas have high population distribution and density. The population density for the county is expected to increase
from 85 in 2018 to 108 and 147 persons per square km in 2022 and 2030 due to the high population growth.

Table 5 shows that population density is high in Pokot south estimated at 164 persons per km2 while Kacheliba is lowest with a density
of 63 persons per km2 as per 2018 projections. The high population density in Pokot South is due to high agricultural potential of the
area.

Under five years (0-5yrs): In 2018, the under- five year age group in the county is estimated at 268,739 children. This is nearly 20.2
per cent of the total population. The population of this age cohort is projected to be 341,634 in 2022 and 463,006 in 2030.

This age group forms the base for the future human resource for the county. It is therefore an important group when planning especially
on health and education. Early Childhood Programmes (ECDE) provides a foundation for this group for meeting cognitive,
psychological, moral and emotional needs. Health on the other hand ensures a healthy child population. This age group is highly
vulnerable to morbidity and mortality. For instance, the under-five Mortality Rate (U5MR) for the county remains high, estimated at
127 deaths per 1,000 live births (127/1,000) compared to the national estimate of 54/1,000. This is double the country’s U5MR and
efforts to address this are very crucial. The major challenges in reduction of child mortality include: inequity in access to health care
service, high cost of accessing health care due to the high poverty levels, inadequate medical personnel and drugs in government
facilities. There is need therefore to focus on access to healthcare services through construction of new health facilities and ensuring
availability of essential medical drugs.

Primary school age group (6-13yrs): The population of this age group is estimated to grow from 208,651 in 2018 to 265,247 in 2022
and 359,482 in 2030. This age group accounts for 26.8 per cent of the total population. Free Primary Education has had a positive impact
on enrolment and completion rates in the county. Despite this improved performance, primary education continues to experience a
number of challenges such as overstretched facilities, overcrowding in schools, low teacher- pupil ratio, retrogressive cultures, nomadic
lifestyle and inaccessibility of education facilities. Some of the requisite interventions to improve access to education to this group
24
include; construction of new schools, expansion of existing school infrastructure, deploying teachers to schools and establishing
boarding facilities for nomadic families.

Secondary School Age group (14-17 yrs): The population of this age group is estimated to increase from 74,939 in 2018 to 95,266 in
2022 and 129,111 in 2030. The increasing enrollment rates due to free primary education and subsidized secondary school education
have exerted pressure on the existing secondary school facilities. Thiscalls for continued investment in secondary school infrastructures,
staffing and additional training institutions to ensure increased opportunities for secondary education are available. There is also need
for an increase in allocation of school bursaries and improved transparency to enhance completion rates and for the benefit of the
disadvantaged poor.

Youth (15-34 yrs.): This is the most productive age group and accounts for 31 per cent of the total population in the county. It is
expected to increase to 242,340, 308,076 and 417,526 in 2018, 2022 and 2030 respectively. The county will require more training
institutions and employment opportunities to make them productive citizens.

Currently, the county has few institutions of higher learning. As a result, only a small proportion of eligible school leavers are absorbed.
Every year less than one half of those graduating from primary schools either join the youth polytechnics for artisan training or enroll
directly for apprenticeship training within the “Jua kali” sector. There is therefore need to implement quality skills development
programmes through TIVET institutions that target this group to enable them to engage in productive employment in both the formal
and informal sectors. Promotion of small and medium enterprises is also very important.

Labour force (15-64yrs): This population is expected to grow to 350,192, 445,181 and 603,340 in 2018, 2022 and 2030 respectively.
This population is projected to grow from 49.34 percent in 2018 to 51.02 per cent in 2022.This age cohort forms the pillar for economic
development in the county as the county depends on it to provide both skilled and unskilled labours to enable the county achieve its
vision. Promotion of small and medium enterprises is also very important for this group. The county must invest heavily on the labour
force existing in the county by improving their work culture, creativity, ethics, and education, entrepreneurial and other skills necessary
for economic take off.

Female Reproductive Age Group (15-49 yrs): The projected population of this age group as at 2018 is 162,753 and is projected to
increase to 206,900 and 560,903 in 2022 and 2030 respectively.

25
This age group faces a number of challenges in the county that include; shortage and inaccessible health facilities, understaffing of
health facilities, high illiteracy levels and poor quality of health services. More than half of public health facilities are poorly equipped
to handle pregnancy related complications, while only a small percentage of pregnant women have births attended to by skilled
personnel. This means that most deliveries take place at home assisted by poorly skilled Traditional Birth Attendants (TBAs).

Contraceptive acceptance for this age group is only 9 per cent meaning that women in the reproductive age group are either not accessing
or utilizing family planning services. This has led to the high population growth rate in the county. Most adolescents and youths lack
appropriate sexual information and services to respond to their reproductive health needs and engage in unprotected sex. The result is
the high levels of STIs, unwanted pregnancy, abortion and abortion-related mortality. The poor performance of maternal indicators is
due to weaknesses in the health systems such human resources, infrastructure, and referral systems. Negative socio-cultural practices
which are rampant such as female genital mutilation and early marriages continue to impact negatively on maternal health.

For the county to achieve SDG 5 on improvement of maternal health; more programmes need to be implemented to address the
reproductive health issues. High Maternal Mortality Rate will be reduced by ensuring the availability of adequate maternity services in
rural health facilities and rapid response to complications caused by unsafe/induced abortion, malaria and HIV and AIDS among others.
This will also be achieved by ensuring that health facilities have adequate staff and by providing more facilities to increase accessibility.

The percentage of people living with disability in West Pokot County is estimated at 3.0 per cent. This population is expected to reduce
due to improved health indicators throughout the county.

1.4 Demographic Dividend

The demographic dividend refers to the accelerated economic development that a country can attain by slowing down the pace of
population growth while at the same time making strategic investments in the health, education, economic, and governance sectors.
With fewer dependents to support, those in the working ages will have more savings that can be invested for the economic growth of
the county thereby improving the wellbeing of the county’s residents.The aim of these investments is to ensure that as the county’s
children and youth get older, they remain healthy, are able to access education and training opportunities.As they enter the labour force
they get income and employment opportunities, they invest for their life in old age, and they participate fully in governance matters
affecting the county.

West Pokot County has the potential to achieve demographic dividend by 2035 if the appropriate investments are made in health,
education, governance and economy and implemented over the plan period.
27
1.5: Human Development Approach
The Human Development Approach examines broader human development issues and is concerned with both building up human
capabilities and with using those human capabilities fully. This approach emerged in response to the growing criticism of the use of
economic development as a measure in the standard of living. It underlines the expansion of opportunities so that the disadvantaged
can do more for themselves through economic, social and political empowerment.
Human development approach recognizes that there is no automatic link between economic growth and human development. The link
has to be made through deliberate policies at all levels. Economic growth that provides resources to support health care, education, and
advancement in other Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) is necessary to enlarge human choices but not sufficient. It in turn,
achievements in human development makes critical contribution in assuring quality human capital to spur economic growth via
productivity gains.
The Human Development Index (HDI) measures human development based on the basic factors of a long and healthy life, the acquisition
of knowledge, and a reasonable standard of living. These factors are measured using the following indicators: life expectancy at birth;
adult literacy rate and the combined enrolment ratio at primary, secondary and tertiary levels; and GDP per capita measured in
purchasing power parity (PPP) US dollars
The use of Human Development Index (HDI), normally in the Human Development Reports (HDR) measure a country’s development
which is a composite index measuring average achievement in three basic dimensions of human development to reflect a country’s
achievements in health and longevity (as measured by life expectancy at birth), education (measured by adult literacy and combined
primary, secondary, and tertiary enrolments), and living standard (measured by GDP per capita in purchasing power parity terms).
Achievement in each area is measured by how far a country has gone in attaining the following goal: life expectancy of 85 years, adult
literacy and enrolments of 100 percent, and real GDP per capita of $40,000 in purchasing power parity terms.
The HDI is not designed to assess progress in human development over the short term because two of its component indicators - adult
literacy and life expectancy at birth - are not responsive to short-term policy changes.

According to the report Kenyan's life expectancy at birth has increased to 62.2 years, According to the report, Kenya has improved
from 0.473 points in 1990 to 0.555 last year, an increase of 17.3 percent. The HDI value for 2015 was 0.555 — which put the country
in the medium human development category whereas West Pokot County life expectancy is at .45 per cent
28
1.6: Infrastructure Development
1.6.1: Road, Rail Network, Ports and Airports, Airstrips and Jetts

The road network in the County is predominantly earth and gravel surface which makes up 87 percent of the road network. The gravel
surface roads cover a distance of 349 km while the earth surface roads cover 697 km. The total length of bitumen surface (tarmac) road
is only 151 km. This means that for every 60.7 km2, there is 1 Km of a tarmac roadand for every 1 Km of the same tarmac road, we
have 4,180 persons. The general status of the road network in the county is poor. The tarmacked road is poorly maintained while the
earth and graveled roads becomes impassable during the rainy seasons. A rugged and hilly terrain within the county poses another
challenge in road connectivity. The county has no rail network, ports and airports. The airstrips are completely inactive.

1.6.2: Posts and Telecommunications; Post Offices, ICT

The county has 5 Post Offices and 3 courier services. In terms of mobile handset communication, the coverage of the mobile network
is still low despite the presence of all major mobile operators (Safaricom, Zain, Yu and Orange) in the county. The low coverage has
therefore limited access to mobile phone services in most parts of the county. There is need to encourage these network providers to
extend their network services to all parts of the county to facilitate easy communication and also to eliminate marginalization of some
parts of the county. This can have a multiplier effect of opening up these areas for other development activities to support the realization
of Kenya vision 2030. Television access is limited to some areas in the county. In addition, the county has one local FM radio station.
External FMs radio stations also play a big role in the dissemination of information. They also offer platforms for people to air their
views and for authorities to disseminate policies and issues affecting the people.
1.6.3: Energy Access

The main source of energy in the county is fuel wood which accounts 90 per cent of the energy needs of the county population.
Petroleum energy is another source accounting for 5 per cent energy needs. Despite the presence of Turkwel Dam, which generates
electricity, connection is still low with only 2 per cent of the population accessing electricity and only 10 trading centres connected
with power. Electricity power outages are also prevalent in the county. Paraffin, which is another source of energy, is used by 8 per
cent of population. Other sources of energy in the county include charcoal and solar. The county has a high potential for solar energy
which remains untapped.
29
Energy is one of the infrastructural enablers of the three pillars of Vision 2030 and the level and intensity of commercial energy use is
a key indicator of the degree of economic growth and development

Electricity connections for domestic use, small commercial, industrial use and street lighting and the average annual pump prices and
monthly pump prices in the County are relatively lower. Electricity for domestic use are Low voltage level (240 /415kV) users while
Small commercial are medium commercial and industrial customers user are medium at Voltage level (11&33 kV)

1.6.4: Housing Types

The main housing types in the county are grass thatched houses, semi-permanent and permanent houses. In overall, there are 88,026
grass thatched houses, 5,129 permanent and semi-permanent houses mainly found in the urban/town centres. Traditional manyattas are
found in some parts of Pokot North and Pokot Central Sub-Counties. The county housing sector is characterized by inadequacy of
affordable and decent housing, low investment, extensive and inappropriate dwelling units.

1.7: Land and Land use

1.7.1: Land ownership Categories/Classification

Land ownership in the county is under public, private and community. Public land consist of schools, hospitals, forests, cattle dips,
holding grounds for livestock among others. Private land category is classified into registered land to individuals (absolute ownership),
land leased to individuals and companies by county and national governments while community land category consist of all the
unregistered land which is held in trust by the county government.They are in form of group ranches and community shrines.

1.7.2: Mean holding size

The average farm sizes in the county stands at 20 acres. The population is predominantly rural depending on pastoralism as their main
source of livelihood. Subsistence crop production is also undertaken in the arable areas.

1.7.3: Percentage of land with tittle deeds

30
An estimated 80 and 90 per cent of land in West Pokot and Pokot South sub counties have title deeds. Land Adjudication is currently
ongoing in Pokot Central while nearly all land in North Pokot does not have title deeds as it is communally owned. In total, less than 40
percent of the farmers in the county have title deeds.

1.7.4: Incidence of landlessness

Land in the county is largely communally owned. As a result, cases of landlessness are minimal. The county government will work
towards land reforms that address the needs of specific groups including women, widows, orphans, and persons with disabilities. Land
reforms are geared towards holistic management and participatory governance of this critical resource so as to create a foundation for
the implementation of projects identified in the integrated plan.

1.8: Employment
1.8.1: Wages Earners

Wage earners constitute only five percent of the county population. This is due to low education levels among the county residents, lack
of technical skills and limited job opportunities. Informal sector employs a good proportion of the County population through farming
and pastoralism.

1.8.2: Self –Employed

An agriculture and livestock sector contributes 84 per cent of household income in the county and is the biggest source of employment.
The pastoralist keep cattle, sheep, goats and camels while those practicing agriculture mainly grow maize, potatoes, pyrethrum, coffee
and beans. Other sources of self-employment in the county include trading, transport sector and Jua kali business activities

1.8.3: Labour Force by Sector

The labour force (15-64 years) in the county comprises 45 per cent of the county population. Therefore, there is an urgent need to put
in place strategies that facilitate generation of employment opportunities to enable the labour force to be employed.

1.8.4: Unemployment Levels

31
With a population of 286,183 aged above 15 years, 204,155 persons representing 34 per cent of the county population are employed.
Those either seeking work or have no available work are 29,454 representing 5 per cent of the population, while 37 per cent (153,648
persons) are economically inactive.

1.9: Irrigation infrastructure and schemes

1.9.1: Irrigation Potential

The county total irrigation potential is estimated at 10,000 ha of which 1,800 ha is currently under irrigation.The importance of irrigation
in the county cannot be over emphasized. The people living in the lowlands virtually survive on it. It is therefore a crucial
activity.Irrigation is mainly carried out by groups of farmers using irrigation canals and furrows abstracting water from rivers and
streams. There are a total of 120 canals/ furrows concentrated mainly in Pokot Central and the lower parts of Pokot South sub- counties.

1.9.2: Irrigation schemes

There are several irrigation schemes which are complete while others are still under construction. The completed irrigation schemes
are Ngorkal in West Pokot sub-county (20 ha), Kariamangole (60ha) and Mokuwo (90 ha) in Pokot South sub-county. The irrigation
schemes under construction include the following Mrel (200ha) and Orwa (150ha) in Pokot central, Tamough (20 ha), Tombul (40ha)
and Kochar (30ha) in West Pokot sub-county and Kolotubei ( ) in Pokot South.

1.10: Crop, Livestock, Fish production and Value addition

1.10.1: Main Crops Produced

The main food crops produced include maize, beans, sorghum, fingermillet, green grams, Irish potatoes, sweet potatoes and bananas.
The farmers also grow horticultural crops which include fruits (mangoes, pawpaw, oranges, tree tomato and passion fruit) and vegetables
both exotic and local (onions, cabbages, kales, pumpkins, sucha, cowpeas, saga, peas and carrots among others). The fruits and
vegetables contribute immensely to food security as farmers use it for food as well as generate income to the households.

Cash crops grown in the County include coffee, pyrethrum, sunflower and tea which still has small acreage. There is high potential to
expand area under cash crops when market is streamlined.
32
Maize is the staple food in the County and is mainly grown in the high rainfall areas of the county especially in West Pokot sub-county.
Coffee is grown in West Pokot and Pokot South sub- counties while pyrethrum is grown in Pokot South sub-county. The food crops
grown do not food requirements for the county. The farmers get low yields for food crops as they grown them on subsistence basis and
some farmers do not use fertilizer and certified seed. The County government has subsidized the farmers through ploughing and
provision of farm inputs to needy farmers.

Pyrethrum farms had been neglected by farmers due to non payment of delivery of their flowers and problem of brokers. With
establishment of cash crop directorate and liberalization of the market pyrethrum will come back to its glory and be able to improve the
lives of farmers. The strategies which have been put in place will increase the acreage under the crop immensely.

The total acreage for crops in the County is 44.102ha. This consists of approximately 40,797 Ha of food crops, 2,785 ha of horticultural
crops and 520 ha under cash crops.There has been an increase in land under food crops due to development of irrigation schemes. Most
of them are under construction while some are complete.The main challenges facing agriculture in the the county include high illiteracy
levels among farmers,effects of climate change, low certified seeds and fertilizer usage,pest and diseases and low extension coverage.
Despite progress made, there exist huge potential for commercialized agriculture in the county.

1.10.2: Average Farm Sizes

The average farm size is 5 hectares and 25 hectares for small farmers and large scale farmers respectively. Land ownership in West
Pokot Sub-county and parts of Pokot South has been adjudicated therefore farmers can access to credit. Pokot North, Pokot Central,
parts of West Pokot and Pokot South are communally owned hence is difficult for farmers in these areas to access any credit.

1.10.3: Main Storage Facilities

National Cerals and produce Board provide the major storage facilities for cereals with a capacity of 150, 000 bags of cereals (90kg
bags). These storage facilities are situated in Makutano, Sigor and Kacheliba. There are also two private storage facilities within the
environs of Makutano while the others within farmers are small granaries which are prone to high post-harvest losses.

1.10. 5.1. Livestock Breeds

1.10. 5.1. Livestock Types and Breeds

33
 The main livestock breeds in the county are the indigenous cattle (Zebu), sheep, goats, poultry and donkeys. Also introduced to the
county are the dairy cattle, camels, Sahiwal cattle, Galla goats, dairy goats, dorper sheep, exotic poultry and rabbits.

In terms of estimated population, there are 789,300 indigenous cattle, 74,500 dairy cattle, 200 sahiwal cattle, 634,355 indigenous goats,
6,000 galla goats, 400 dairy goats, 529,376 indigenous sheep 95,550 wool sheep, 4,000 dorper sheep, 533,000 indigenous poultry,
55,980 exotic poultry, 35,271 camels and 41,943 donkeys.These livestock types and breeds are distributed in all the four sub-counties
in varied numbers depending on the climatic conditions and rate of adoption of introduced breeds.

The estimated annual milk production for West Pokot County is 6,000,000 litres valued at KSh.200, 000,000. Most of this milk is sold
through cooperatives’ which collect the milk in their milk coolers. Currently, there are fourteen (14) milk coolers most of them in Lelan
and Tapach wards. Apart from milk, meat is another important product whose production is estimated at 4,140,000 kg valued at KSh.
750,950,000 per year. This is meat from animals slaughtered in butcheries within the county. Most of the livestock are sold as live
animals to places outside West Pokot County. Such destinations include Western Kenya, Trans-Nzoia, Uasin-Gishu, Nakuru, Maimahiu,
Nairobi and Mombasa. From the local butcheries, about 5,000 hides and 50,000 sheep and goat skins are produced per year.

1.10.5.2. Livestock Facilities

Livestock facilities in the county include office blocks, livestock improvement centres, Livestock holding grounds, hay sheds, cattle
dips, metallic crushes and veterinary laboratories.

There are seven livestock holding grounds in the county namely: Kacheliba, Pkopoch, Keringet, Kabichbich, Nasukuta, Runo and
Lotongot. Other lands meant for livestock breeding camps, livestock water pans and grazing demonstrations were Kitelakapel, Kongelai,
Kanyikeny and Murpus. Most of these are dormant and therefore need to be revived or rehabilitataed for better livestock productivity.
For example Kanyikeny has been earmarked for Beekeeping Research Centre and Kitelakapel for Pasture production, livestock breeding
and Nasukuta should be upgraded to into a Pastoral Training Centre.Among the holding grounds under use are Nasukuta, Keringet and
Pkopoch. Nasukuta hosts a livestock improvement centre and an export slaughter house, while Keringet hosts an agricultural training
centre currently proposed to be university. Pkopoch hosts a pasture plot and hay store together with a county hotel under construction.

Apart from the hay shed at Pkopoch another hay shed also constructed through DRSLP project is at Masol. The county government has
constructed a hay shed at Nasukuta, There is need to construct more of these as they help store hay for dry seasons.Ninety-nine (99)

34
cattle dips and thirty-four (34) metallic crushes have been constructed and more need be done as the are important in livestock disease
control. Dips are more appropriate in the highlands while hand spray pumps and metallic crushes are more useful in the lowland.

There is one satellite veterinary laboratory in the county which requires equipping. Six office blocks are in existence some of which are
not complete and require completion and equipping. Some more need be constructed at sub-county and ward levels.There are five
constructed saleyards and there is need to construct more for better livestock marketing.

1.10.6: Ranching

There are no commercial ranches in the county. Group ranches have become dormant and are some are currently undergoing sub-
division into individual parcels. There is need to encourage pastoralists to emrace ranching as a sustainable form of livelihood as
opposed to currently practiced pastoralism.

1.10.7: Apiculture

Bee-keeping is an old practice among the West Pokot residents. Livestock department has continued to promote apiculture with
emphasis on use of modern hives and equipment. There are about 149,478 bee hives producing approximately 1,196,000 kg of honey
and 119,600 kg of wax annually.Most beekeepers sell their honey in crude form to traders within and outside the county. The main
honey buyers within the county are CABESI in Kapenguria, Kodich Beekeepers’ Co-operative Society , Kitelakapel Cooperative
Society and Kerio Valley Development Authority.These buyers process or semi-refine the honey before marketing.

1.11: Oil and Other Mineral Resources

1.11.1: Mineral and Oil potential

The county mineral potentials remain untapped. The following minerals are unexploited: limestone, gold, and ruby. Massive limestone
deposits are found in Sebit, Ortum, Muino, and Alale. A proposed cement industry is to be established in Sebit to fully exploit the
limestone deposits. In addition to these potentials, the County has prospect of oil reserve in parts of Pokot North and Central Pokot. All
these minerals in the county have the potential of generating additional revenue to the county government. There is need for the county
government to enter into partnership (PPP) with investors to be able to explore and tap these natural resources

35
1.11.2: Ongoing Mining and Extraction (Quarry, sand harvesting, cement etc.)

The County has limited gold deposits along river Muruny, Seker and parts of Alale, limestone deposits in Sebit, Ortum, Muino and parts
of Alale. However, the deposits have not been commercially exploited. Sand harvesting is carried out in most parts of the county but is
mainly in Kongelai Division.

1.12: Tourism and Wildlife

1.12.1: Main Tourist attractions activities

Tourism sites in the county have largely remained unexploited. For instance tourist attraction sites in the county include (Nasolot Game
reserve), scenic sites, escarpments (Marich escarpment, Kaisagat viewpoint, Mtelo and Koh hills), ecotourism and Turkwel Dam remain
untapped. Others tourism attractions include the rich Pokot Culture and artefacts in Kapenguria museum, curio shops and wildlife. Apart
from these, the County is a proud home of the infamous “Kapenguria Six” Cells that is found in Kapenguria Museum

1.12.1: Classified hotels

There is lack of classified hotels and the low bed occupancy in the county due to unexploited and poor marketing of tourism potential.
This is a setback in the development of tourism sector. Given the tourism potential, despite the tourism potential, there are no
classified hotels and restaurants in the county. The places where tourist can reside include Mtelo view campsite, Lamut cultural site
(Sigor), KVDA guest house (Sigor) and Chesta guest house (on the foot of Koh hills). However, the county government has initiated
the need to promote hotel industry by constructing Kopoch Tourism Hotel which will trigger requisite infrastructural support for
aggressive marketing a tourist circuit within the county.

1.12.1: Main Wildlife

Nasolot Game Reserve which has variety of wild animals is the only game reserve in the area. The animals include Elephant, Buffalo,
Hyena, Impalas, Leopard and Lions. Currently, there are more than 160 elephants and more than 20 leopards in the County. The
elephants found in Nasolot game reserve are among the largest Elephants found in the world. Human-wildlife conflict due to drought
and encroachment of the wildlife habitat which has led to crop destructions and human deaths is the main challenge.

1.13.4: Major industries

1.13.5: Micro, Small and Medium enterprises (MSME)

1.14: Financial services

1.14.1: Number of Banks, Micro finance services by Sub County

The county has 3 commercial banks (KCB, Equity and Barclays), 4 Micro Finance Institutions and 6 SACCOs. Most of these financial
institutions have their services concentrated in Makutano Town. Pokot Central and Pokot North Sub-Counties do not have banks or
micro finance institutions thus limiting access to financial services.The percentage of citizens owning bank accounts remains low in
the county. Loan uptake and repayment is also low and more effort is needed to reverse this trend. Agency banking is expected to play
a key role in enhancing financial services penetration into rural areas and in mobilising savings for investment

1.15: Forestry, Agroforestry and Value Addition

1.15.1: Main Forest Types and size of forests (Gazetted and Un-gazetted forests)

37
The gazetted forest covers an area of 22938 ha. Natural forests are mainly found on the highland side of Pokot South and Pokot Central
which forms Cherangani Hills. Forest cover is continuously being depleted due to human activities and deforestation is largely in areas
of Kamatira, Sondany, Solion, Kawuk, Kuper, Seker, parts of Alale, and most parts of Pokot South. There are also exotic forests in West
Pokot and Pokot South. Farmers also practice tree planting on their farms.

The current forest cover in the county is approximately 8.39% including indigenous forests, open woodlands and a few plantations.
However, the county is losing a lot of forests primarily through conversion of forests to agriculture or for development projects.

More than 80% of West Pokot land area is semi-arid lands (SALs). These areas have low population densities and livelihoods are
primarily based on livestock k. Woody vegetation in these areas is sparse consisting mainly of dry bush and open wooded grassland.
The majority of the rural population lives in the remaining 20%, that experience higher rainfall. Much of the current forest areas are
protected as forest reserves and trust lands forests. There is great potential for the expansion of forestry development into SALs areas.
They provide the potential for the production of fuel wood, charcoal, building poles and pasture for dry season grazing.

1.15.1: Main Forest products

The main forest products include firewood, timber, herbs, fruits, grazing fields and honey production. The quantities of these products
and their value have not so far been determined.

The majority of West Pokot residents rely on wood and wood products as their primary source of energy. It is estimated that over 80%
of Kenya rely on forest for their domestic energy needs either as charcoal or firewood, with a continually increasing population in West
Pokot, there is continuous great pressure on the county forests.

1.15.1: Agro-forestry

1.15.1: Value chain development of forestry and products

There are few farm forests in the county with woodlots for commercial purposes. The Kerio Valley Development Authority have set up
fruit seedling demonstration plots at Kongelai to encourage farmers to engage in farm forestry as a source of income. There exists a
huge market for forests products such as poles, timber and wood fuel which can be tapped. Several community based organizations are
also engaged in woodlot establishment as an income generating activity
38
Forest Income Generating Activities
• The county needs to prioritise increase of tree cover in water catchment areas. It is worth noting that Cherangany water catchment
area has been under illegal encroachment and therefore, there is need to strengthen protection of this catchment area so that the
county can continue benefiting from this catchment area as most rivers emanates from it.
• Protection of water catchment areas by planting more trees and improved farming practices like intercropping and agro-forestry
need to be promoted in the county.
• Provision of wood fuel and generation of energy for industries in order to reduce the dependency on wood, use of solar powered
lanterns, wind energy and biogas technology needs to be promoted. The use of wood as a source of energy for industries is
minimal since there are no major industries within the county.
• Improvement of soil fertility by growing fertilizer trees to sustain agriculture. The planting of nitrogen fixing trees such as
Sesbania, Calliandra and Luecena species which are exotic trees and Acacia species which are indigenous trees needs to be
promoted.
• Growing of fruit trees for improved nutrition both for domestic use and surplus for markets in small scale mostly for domestic
use while others grow naturally in the forests. The fruit trees grown in the county includes oranges, bananas, and mangoes among
others.The lowland areas of the county namely Sigor, Lomut, Chesegon and Kacheliba are favourable for fruit farming. There is
need therefore to upscale fruit farming in these areas.
• Provision of Carbon Sinks such as Carbon Trading to offset greenhouse gas emission that is responsible for global warming and
climate change. Ecological stability and reduction in biodiversity loss is necessary for continued green economy. Opportunities
provided by carbon markets should therefore be explored. However, this needs to be scaled up to attract more stakeholders to
plant more trees for carbon trading.
• Beautification activities in urban centres, highways, schools, homes and other public places. Makutano and Kapenguria
Township have undertaken a beautification programme. This activity however needs upscaling. In addition to providing
environmental beauty these trees and gardens filter pollutants and dust from the air, improve air quality and reduce heat buildup
in towns. Beautification promotes green economy.
• Animal Feeds Production Venturesis practised in the county in small scale and especially by individuals. Some of the animal
feeds produced through agro-forestry in the include hay. This is a venture that the county needs to invest in as way of promoting
green economy.

39
 • Growing and processing for medicinal purposes/ value plants and products. A number of trees in the forests are used for their
medicinal values. Most of these trees grow naturally in the forests although some are grown by tree farmers. However, processing
of forest products for medicinal purposes has not been exploited as a venture. The medicinal trees grown include aloevera,
prunus africanum, olea hotstetteri, croton megalocarpus and dombeya

1.16: Environment and Climate Change

1.16.1: Major degraded areas

The impact of land degradation has caused poor environmental management, especially Kongelai, Kasei, kiwawa, Riwo and sook.
Charcoal burning is largely prevalent in Kongelai, Marich and Sigor. Human encroachment to forest has adversely Pokot South Sub-
County

1.16.2: Major contributions to environmental degradation

Some of the major contributors to environmental degradation in the county include: poor disposal of both solid and liquid wastes,
unsustainable farming methods, charcoal burning, overgrazing, deforestation and human encroachment of the protected areas. The
impact of poor waste disposal is evident in all centres, especially Makutano trading centre, where there is no sewerage system. Charcoal
burning is largely prevalent in Kongelai, Marich and Sigor. Human encroachment to forest has adversely Pokot South Sub-County.
1.16.3: Environmental Hotspots

The county major environmental hotspots include massive soil erosion, unpredictable weather patterns, resource based conflicts water
pollution, air pollution, reduced agricultural outputs/yields, increased drought incidence/desertification, reduced and diminishing
forest products and flooding.

1.16.4: Solid Waste Management Facilities

The impact of poor waste disposal is evident in all centres, especially Makutano trading centre, where there is no sewerage system.
Charcoal burning is largely prevalent in Kongelai, Marich and Sigor. Human encroachment to forest has adversely Pokot South Sub-
County.
1.16.5: Invasive Species and Impacts on Health
40
Global warming is the observed increase in the average temperature of earth’s atmosphere and oceans that arise as a result of the
increasing use of fossil fuels and other man’s activities that release excessive greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The greenhouse
gases include water vapour, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane and chlorofluorocarbons which has high impact on human health.

1.16.6: Loss of Biodiversity

The county’s wide ecosystems range from Montane rain forests, savannah woodlands, and dry forests. The broad diversity of the
county’s ecosystems boasts an enormous range of wide species of flora and fauna with unique and biodiversity rich region, Cherangany
hills; forest in the county’s water tower and catchment areas serve to regulate local climate and water, pollution and carbon sinks. In
addition, they provide erosion control, natural hazard and disease regulation. However, soil erosion and consequent degradation of the
soil continues to be a major challenge. In addition, adverse climate change has a major impact on forest resources and ecosystems,
mainly through droughts, flooding and landslides

1.16.7: High spatial and temporary variability of rainfall

The greenhouse effect has caused variation in weather patterns and intensity resulting in climate change. Temperatures have risen
throughout the county. Rainfalls have become irregular and unpredictable, and when it rains, downpour is more intense. The impact of
climate change in the county is mostly manifested by flooding, prolonged drought and landslides.

1.16.8: Climate related disaster such as drought, floods and landslides

The impact of climate change in the county is mostly manifested by flooding, prolonged drought and landslides. Parts of Kongelai and
Sigor divisions have experienced adverse soil erosions with huge gulley erosion, while landslides and flooding frequently affects parts
of Muino, Sondany and Ptirap in Pokot Central Sub-County. Due to rising demand for forest products as well as poverty and
urbanization, there has been an upsurge in encroachment in forest and water catchment areas, charcoal burning and deforestation. This
has in effect led to increased desertification.

1.17: Water and Sanitation

Water sources in the county include streams, wells, boreholes, dams, roof catchment and piped water. The households with access to
borehole/spring/well water stands at 26,259 which translate to 28 percent of the population. There are also 8,563 households with access
41
to piped water while 1,210 households have access to piped water into their dwellings. However, majority of the households, 54,977
which is 59 percent of the population still use rivers/streams as their source of water. The average distance to nearest water point is 5
km. The main water supplies in the county are Makutano-Kapenguria, Tartar–Keringet, Karas, Kabichbich and Chepareria Water supply
systems and are largely gravity propelled. These schemes are nonetheless inadequate to serve the general population of the county. It is
worth noting that the county does not have a water treatment to ensure that the county’s population accesses clean drinking water.

The number of households with latrines stands at 30,449 representing 33 percent of the population. There are 156 households connected
with septic tanks, 1,922 households with VIP latrines, 28,527 households using pit latrines and a massive 62,901 households representing
67 percent of the population using bushes especially in the rural areas.

1.18: Health and Sanitation

1.18.1: Health Access

The Health Sector has a critical role in the attainment of Vision 2030 which requires a healthy working population to enhance
productivity. Lack of equitable access to health services across the county due to historical marginalization remains a challenge.
However devolution has been a game changer although more resources need to be allocated to the sector.

The county has numerous gaps in most of the health system blocks. Most notably in Human Resources for Health an In terms of levels
of care under Tier One (community health services) there have 60 community units spread across the sub counties. Under Tier Two
(dispensaries and health centres) we have 105 health facilities 10 being Health Centres. We also have five county hospitals under Tier
Four. Currently there are no Tier five facilities but plans are underway to upgrade the county referral hospital to level five. In addition
we have 6 private clinics and one mobile clinic under the Beyond Zero initiative.

The health worker (doctor, nurses and midwives) population ratio stands at 1:1563 as compared to the 1:400 ratio recommended by the
World Health Organization. This coupled with the average distance of 25Km to the nearest Health facility makes access to quality health
services a challenge in the county.
42
1.18.2: Morbidity

The leading causes of outpatient morbidity in the county include diseases of respiratory system (30.9%), Malaria (15.2%), Diarrheal
diseases (7.9%), diseases of the skin (including wounds)(5.0%), Pneumonia(4.1%), Typhoid fever (3.0%), Accidents-Fractures and
injuries ( 2.7%), Urinary Tract Infections ( 2.4%), Eye infections( 1.4%) and Ear infections ( 0.9%) The drivers of these conditions
include low latrine coverage, poor utilization of long lasting insecticide treated nets (LLITNs), poor hygiene, low levels of education
and negative socio-cultural beliefs.

1.18.3: Nutrition

Undernutrition is a major public health concern in the county. According to the 2014 Kenya Demographic and Health Survey stunting
was at 45.9%, those underweight stood at 38.5% and wasting were at 14.3%. All these levels were above the WHO thresholds. The
SMART survey done in June 2017 revealed a slight decrease in stunting rate to 39.9% with those underweight being 40.6%. This puts
the county’s future at a risk since malnutrition is associated with diminished mental abilities and low productivity.

1.18.4: Reproductive Maternal, Neonatal, Adolescent and Child Health (RMNCAH)

Focussed antenatal and perinatal care is critical for the health of both the mother and the baby. The WHO recommends at least four
antenatal care (ANC) visits during a woman’s pregnancy. The percentage of women who attended four ANC visits dropped from 21.3%
in 2016 to 13.0% in 2017.This was also associated with a drop in delivery by skilled birth attendants (SBA) from 45.3% to 32.0% over
the same period. This drop was also witnessed nationally. The Maternal mortality rate also stood at 434 per 100,000 live births as
estimated the National Council for Population and Development (NCPD) 2014. This compared poorly to the national estimate of 362
per 100,000 live births as per KDHS 2014.

The immunization coverage for the fully immunised child under one year dropped from 58.1% in 2016 to 43% in 2017. This was way
below the national target of 85%. All these were attributable to the protracted industrial action by nurses in 2017. Other notable
challenges include inadequate cold chain facilities, inadequate power, staff shortage and a difficult terrain.

43
1.18.5: Family Planning

The County has the second highest Total Fertility Rate (TFR) in the country. It stands at 7.2 births as compared with the national estimate
of 3.9 births per women. However the contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR any method) dropped from 14.2% as per KDHS 2014 to
12.2% in 2017 in DHIS 2. This remains a major challenge due to cultural beliefs, religion and low levels of education. A multi-sector
approach is therefore key in realising meaningful change.

1.19: Education, Skills, Literacy and Infrastructure

1.19.1: Pre-School Education

There are 1,032 pre-primary schools centres in the county with 838 ECD teachers. ECDE enrolment currently stands at 77,679 giving
teacher pupil ratio of 1:92. This enrolment represents approximately 51 percent of the total eligible number of ECD school age children
under this age bracket. Low enrolment is contributed by nomadic lifestyle, long distances to schools and lack of enough feeding
program. The priority areas under early childhood development include construction of additional classrooms, recruitment of more
ECD teachers, provision of school feeding programme and installation of water tanks to ECDE schools.

1.19.2: Primary Education

There are 554 primary schools with total enrolment of 186,708 pupils in the county. There are 3005 teachers giving teacher pupil ratio
of 1:52. The county has a gross primary school enrolment of 89 percent and a transition rate of 66 percent to secondary schools. Issues
affecting primary school going school children in the county include lack of sanitary pads, inadequate teaching staff, early marriages,
female genital mutilation, child labour, sexual abuse, inadequate learning and reading materials, inadequate access to water and
healthcare, insecurity, high household poverty levels, inadequate parental care and lack of electricity connections in some schools.

1.19.3: Secondary Education

There are 120 secondary schools with total enrolment of 156,272 students in the county. There are a total of 3005 teachers giving
Teacher pupil ratio of 1:52. The county has a gross secondary school enrolment of 75 percent. Staffing and school infrastructure needs
to be proved to enhance the learning environment and ensure quality education.
44
1.19.4: Youth Polytechnics

There are six youth polytechnics in the County namely; Kapenguria, Chepareria, Ortum, Sigor, Sina and Kodich. Enrolment in county
polytechnics is very low.Huge gender disparities also exist in enrolment in favor of males. As at December 2017, the total enrolment in
the county stood at 588, posting a low average of 98 trainees per institution.Commitment by the new county government administration
to offer bursaries for vocational trainees raised the enrolment by more than double in the first term of 2018. In order for the county to
register milestones in this sector, the focus should deliberate and directed towards four distinctive strategic areas : quality and relevance,
Equity and access, Governance and Management, and financing. This tremendous increase in enrolment calls for county government’s
interventions in the areas of: VTcs’ staff recruitment and employment, infrastructure development, provision of tools and equipment,
support in governance and management, and enhanced community sensitization. The sensitization component will be vital since the
current enrolment caters for only about 30% of youth leaving the mainstream education system between primary and secondary levels
(over 3,500 annually).

There is also need for the county to put up more vocational training centres, especially in expansive wards with high population to
increase access and equity. This trend has led to the sorry state that the existing vocational training centres (VTCs) are in: dilapidated
infrastructure, grossly understaffed, and low enrolment, access, transition and equity.

1.19.5: Tertiary Education

There are eleven tertiary institutions in the county of which five are polytechnics, extra mural centre of Nairobi University, Kisii
University, Elgon View Training Institute, Kitale technical branch, Kenya Institute of Professional Studies, Teachers training colleges
(Chesta TTC and Murpus TTC), ECDE Teachers College, Kapenguria and Ortum Nursing Schools. These tertiary institutions remain
insufficient and there is need to put up more institutions in the county.

1.19.7: Adult and Continuing Education

The united international action plan for implementing resolution 56/116 states that the literacy for all is at the heart of basic education
for all creating literate environment and societies is essensial for achieving goals of eradicating poverty ,reducing mortality ,curbing
population growth ,achieving gender equality and ensuring sustainable development peace and democracy(UN ,2000).Skills needed
45
for lifelong learning not only prepare citizens for competition in the global market but it improves their ability to function as members
of the community and thus,increase social cohesion,reduce crime and improve the distribution of national resources.

Today adults and youths need a broader and stronger skills and knowledge to adapt to the ever evolving technologies and competitive
environment .West Pokot county has low literacy level of 30% compared to the national literacy level of 62% (KNBS 2007) .It is
ranked 38 out of 47 counties in poverty (W0RLD BANK 2013) .West Pokot county with a population over 515,690(KNBS,2009) Has
an illiterate population of 317,144 people .This people are limited in their operations due to illiteracy .According to database (2008)
.Adult education literacy should be a part of many approaches to reducing poverty as multiple initiatives needed to lift people out of
poverty

From the above data ,the average daily attendance of those enrolled is still very low.This hinders the county’s goal of reducing adult
illiteracy as an approach in curbing absolute poverty.Similarly, there is a wide disparity in enrolment distribution among the sub conties
with South Pokot having the highest enrolment and West Pokot having the lowest enrollment .To increase enrolment rates in adult
education, there is need to recruit additional adult teachers,carry out sensitization programmes on the importance of adult
education,providing lunch meals for those attending adult classes and motivating teachers.

1.19.8: Technical Vocational Education and Training

The Community sensitization on the need to embrace vocational skills training as a mainstream career line has resulted to increase in
enrollment from 550 to the current 630 in the public Vocational training centers.The total enrolment in 6 public VTCs in west Pokot
County has more or less remained steady at low levels. Due to limited places available in VTCs, only a small proportion of eligible
school leavers are absorbed (at most 30%). Every year less than a half of those graduating from primary schools either join the VTCs
for artisan training or enroll directly for apprenticeship training within the county

1.20.4: Libraries/information documentation centres/citizens service centres

1.21: Community Organizations/Non-State Actors

1.21.1: Cooperatives Societies

47
Cooperative societies will play a critical role in the development of the county by providing a better interaction between savings and
investment. The County has 83 registered cooperative societies. However, only 36 are active. The rest are either dormant or have
collapsed/bee liquidated. The societies are distributed as follows: North Pokot has 7, West Pokot 36, Central Pokot 6 and South Pokot
29. The active cooperatives deal with a variety of activities which include marketing, savings, consumers and housing, mining,
multipurpose and unions. SACCOs have enormous potential to mobilize additional savings and to provide credit, especially to sections
of the population that do not use banking services and the low income groups

1.21.2: Public Benefits Organizations (PBOs)

The establishment of Government devolved funds as well as grants have led to registration of a number of Self Help Groups, Women,
Men, Youth and Community Based Organizations (CBOs). These groups and CBOs undertake economic activities such as mixed
farming, table banking, capacity building, environmental conservation and other small and medium enterprises. Through these groups
the county hopes to increase its human and social capital.

A total number of 4,297 groups have been registered since 1973 (SHG 2204, women group 992, youth groups 935,men 5, PWD
35,community projects 117,CBO 6, Older persons groups 3). Self Help Groups continue to serve as avenues for accessing the Women
Enterprise Fund (WEF), Youth Enterprise Fund (YEF) as well as other devolved funds and grants. A total of 127 groups have benefited
from the YEF while 80 groups have benefited from WEF. A total of Kshs. 4.05million has so far been disbursed for both WEF and
YEF.

The county has a number of Non-Governmental Organizations working in their various capacities to complement the development
initiatives of the Government. The notable NGOs in the county include: FAO, World Vision, UNICEF, ACF, USAID, Red Cross, and
Health Right International. There are also local NGOs working with the communities such as Yangat, SIKOM, Maendeleo Ya
Wanawake and others. These NGOs are expected to continue supporting rural communities in the areas of agriculture, nutrition, water,
disaster relief, health and education.

1.23: The Blue Economy

1.23.1: Aquaculture

Fish farming which is also refered to as aquaculture has been practiced in West Pokot for along time as a subsistence farming mainly
to provide protein to familes engaged in the venture.The coming of devolution has however changed the industry and given incentives
to prospective farmers. A total of 150 fish farmers have been assisted with 150,000 pieces of mono-sex tilapia in the last five years.
Six schools were also supported with pond liners to promote fish farmings. Further, the county government financed the construction of
a tilapia and catfish hatchery athough it is not operational due to lack of equipment. So far, 100 ponds have patially been harvested and
have realized a total output of 15,000kgs worth approximately ksh.3 million.The department priority is to upscale the enterprise from
the current 200 fish farmers to 800 farmers and target to produce an estimated 960 tonnes of pond fish by 2022.

Main Fishing Activities, Types of Fish Produced, Landing Sites

Capture fisheries is practiced mainly in Turkwel hydro-electric power dam.Seasonal fishing are also carried out in River Muruny, River
Suam and Weiwei River.The Turkwel dam fishery has an enormous potential and can transform lives of those living around the dam.The
county government stocked the dam with 100,000 pieces of mixed sex tilapia.The current harvest stands at 5.4 tonnes of fish per
49
annum.The dam has a potential of producing an annual estimate of 20 tonnes but due to illegal fishing and understocking these potential
cannot be achieved. The fish species harvested is dominated by tilapia and few catches of catfish.The department has constituted a
management committee and now the dam is now fully managed.The co-management team comprises of fishermen, traders, and
transporters .The department targets to restock the dam with 2 million mixed sex tilapia,purchase 3 motor boat over the plan period to
support the fishery .There is only one landing site at Turkwel Dam and the department is planning to build a landing site in Riting .

2.2.2 Economic Pillar

This pillar has the mission of “Moving the Economy up the value chain”. The National Medium Term Plan 2018-2022 identified eight
priority sectors to achieve the vision of this pillar of ensuring there is a sustained economic growth of 10 per cent per annum.
The sectors under this pillar include Tourism, Agriculture and Livestock, Trade, manufacturing, Business process Outsourcing and IT-
enabled services (ITES), Financial services and Oil and Mineral resources and Blue Economy.
Tourism: Tourism sector in the county has not been well developed. This is despite the presence of various tourist attractions in the
County including Nasolot game reserve, Kapenguria museum, beautiful and good sceneries and the rich culture that remain untapped.
This sector is faced by numerous challenges that hinders its performance. The county has fno classified tourist class hotels and with a
low bed capacity. Poor road network and insecurity also hampers the development of this sector.

53
The County has planned several programs to revamp it. The investment by the National Government through some of the proects
programs as enumarted below will spur the sector to increase the income of the county and creating employment to the youth. Some of
the proects/programs from the National Government include:
I. Underutilized Parks Initiative – renovation and refurbishment of tourism facilities to attract more visitors and reduce pressure on premium
parks
II. Promote destination Marketing to market Kenya as a leading tourism destination
III. Financing of Tourism Investments through increased investment for development of tourism facilities

Agriculture and Livestock

This sector accounts for 84 per cent of the county’s economy and its growth will have both forward and backward linkages on a large
section the populace of the county. This sector accounts 60 per cent of the country’s total employment making it an important sector as
its performance is reflected by the performance of the whole economy.

This sector is expected to be the main driver to sustainably achieve 10 per cent annual economic growth rate and reduction of poverty
to 25 per cent by 30 per cent by the year 2030.

This sector is faced with maor challenges such as animal disease outbreaks, low adoption of technology, over reliance of rain fed
agriculture, unreliable markets and regular price fluctuations, low level of extension agent farmer ratio, inadequate credit facilities for
farmers, post-harvest losses and high rate of environmental degradation.

During the plan period, apart from the projects and programs outlined by the County Government, the National Government will
undertake the following within the County;
I. Fertilizer Subsidy Programme aimed at facilitating access to affordable and quality fertilizer
II. Irish Potato Support Project To increase production and reduced peak season wastage
III. Strategic Food Reserve Trust Fund (SFRTF) - To maintain sufficient stocks of food commodities
IV. Strategic feed reserve - To improve availability of fodder in ASAL areas
V. Pastoral Resilience Building Program - To build resilience for pastoral and agro-pastoral communities in drought prone areas as well as to
improve Natural resources management, market access and trade, livelihood support to pastoralist management, market access and trade,
livelihood support to pastoralist

fertilizer and certified seeds, Cereal and grain legume yields increased.
54
VII. Farmer Registration Project To develop a National Farmer Register disaggregated to County level (Farmers database established,
Reliable information for appropriate policy formulation and capacity building captured)
VIII. Traditional High Value Crops (THVC) Programme - To improve farmers access to quality seed and planting materials of drought
tolerant Traditional High Value Crops in the Arid and Semi-Arid Areas
IX. National Agricultural Mechanization Project - 1,500 tractors and accessory equipment procured and distributed to improve agriculture
production

Oil and Mineral Resources:

Whereas this sector accounts for 1 per cent of the country’s GDP and 3 per cent of the export earnings, it still remains untapped. It has
the potential of becoming the biggest contributor of GDP if fully employed.
The National Government has planned through the National MTP III to;
I. Undertake Nationwide Ground Follow-up survey - To ascertain the occurrence of minerals in the mineralized areas revealed by airborne
geological data & information on minerals, quality and quantity of minerals
II. Inventorying & zoning of areas with construction materials - To zone areas with construction materials in all 47 counties
III. Development of an atlas of geo-hazards for Kenya - To map and monitor geo-hazards prone areas
2.2.3 Social Pillar
This pillar aims at building a just and cohesive society that enjoys equitable social development in a clean and secure environment. The
following projects and programs have been planned for implementation in the MTP III correspondingly;
Education The County is hindered by the following challenges towards building relevant human and social capital for sustainable
development: Poverty and Hunger, Retrogressive cultures like FGM, cattle rustling and early marriages that affects enrolment rates and
Low teacher student ratio – from ECD to secondary

In the MTP III, the following has been envisaged to address some of the challenges in the county;
I. Universalization of ECDE - Increase the coverage of ECDE in the country by 20% (All children transiting to primary have at
least two years of ECDE);

county to be established and a technical training institute also established.
VIII. ICT Integration in Secondary Education To integrate ICT in Institutional management and curriculum delivery in secondary
schools

Health
This sector has a goal of providing equitable, affordable and quality health care to all citizens. It’s the gate way to the enjoyment of right
to health as enshrined in the constitution. The national health policy framework 2012-2030 has six policy objectives and seven strategic
objectives that aim towards attainment of vision 2030 goal of “equitable, affordable and quality health care of the highest standard”.
The six policy objectives include; eliminating communicable diseases, half and reverse the burden of Non communicable diseases,
reduce the burden of violence and injuries, provide essential care, and minimize the exposure to health risk factors and strengthen
collaboration with providers. These will be achieved through health financing, leadership, product and technologies, health work force,
infrastructure, information and service delivery systems.
The following interventions have been proposed through the MTP III;

I. Digital Health Flagship Project - Transform the health care delivery system through digital health
II. Scaling up of nutrition program - Reduction in incidences of stunting
III. Immunization Program To reduce prevalence of vaccine preventable illnesses
IV. To improve maternal health care access in Kapenguria Hospital trough rehabilitation of wards.

Environment, Water and Sanitation

It is the main anchor for the main productive sectors of Agriculture, tourism, manufacturing and energy. The economic survey of 2011
reported that 42 % of the country’s GDP is derived from natural resource based sectors. This sector aims at enhancing access to clean,
secure and sustainable environment.

56
This sector is faced with poor sanitation and environmental degradation due to low latrine coverage, lack of sewarege facility in Major
Township, lack of a dumping site, poor farming techniques, encroachment of water catchment areas and deforestation. The county is
also faced with poor access to potable water both for drinking and animal use.
To achieve the goal of this sector, the following shall be implemented at the county through the MTP 2018-2022;;
I. Sewerage Programme - To increase access to safe water and sanitation
II. Rehabilitation and Protection of Water Towers - To improve Water Towers Ecosystem Health and resilience
III. Irrigation and drainage infrastructure - To enhance capacity and expand area under irrigation.

V. Biodiversity, Forests and Wildlife Resources Management and Conservation -to enhance management and conservation of
Biodiversity, forests and wildlife resources.

Population, Urbanization and Housing

This sector has the mission of providing “adequate and decent housing in a sustainable manner”. The county is faced with a fast rising
population that needs to be controlled for betterand quality life.
The annual intercensal growth rate stands at 5.2 per cent for the county. The high growth rate has triggered rapid urbanization with
unmatched better and improved social infrastructure, increased dependency ratio, and high poverty in the long run. The family planning
uptake has been very low making the fertility rate to stand at 7.2 children per woman
The MTP III has prioritized the following;
• Housing Sector Incentives - To Stimulate private sector contribution to housing delivery goals
• Housing Finance - To facilitate access to affordable housing finance; to deliver 100 social housing units per county per year; to
facilitate steady flow of financing for maintenance of government houses
• Advocacy on population issues.
• Preparation of integrated urban development plans as well as physical development plans.
• Undertake national population census for better planning.

Gender, Vulnerable Groups and Youth

57
 Youth forms majority of the population in the county and are faced with unemployment challenges. There are also vulnerable groups
like the older persons, orphans and vulnerable children, the disabled and women who needs special attention.

This category faces a lot of challenges that prevent them from attaining their goals and also from opportunities in life. The National
Government has put in place some affirmative action to address the challenges facing this group which include;
I. Women Enterprise Fund - To enhance equitable access and effective utilisation of WEF
II. AGPO - To enhance uptake and effective delivery of AGPO
III. Uwezo Fund - To enhance equitable access and effective utilisation of UWEZO fund
IV. National Government Affirmative Action Fund - To improve women, youth and vulnerable persons for socio-economic
empowerment
V. Bursary and cash transfer program for the orphans and the vulnerable older persons.
4.2.4 Political Pillar

2.3 Linkage between CIDP, Sector Plans and Budget

As a medium term Plan, CIDP is the County’s blue print that provides development initiatives, programs, projects and strategies for the
attainment of the County’s Vison. It has a lifespan of 5 years. CIDP provides the basis for funds expenditure.
Other medium term plans within the County are the Strategic Plans of the various sections/sectors. These Strategic Plans provides a
clear road map for their respective units as they draw their strategies and interventions as enumerated in the CIDP.
The Long term Plans especially Spatial Plan and Sector Plans which are of a 10 year term have been used to guide the CIDP preparation.
Short term plans especially the Annual Development Plan and the Budget derives their input from the programs and projects as in the
CIDP. The following chart provides the inter linkages between the different plans;

2.4 Legal Framework for County Planning

The Constitution (2010) of Kenya brought more reforms in the public sector. Devolution was one of the key changes that ushered in a
structure of Government with a two-tier system; National Government and County Governments.

60
To give life to new structures of governance, a number of laws were enacted to guide governance at both levels and their modalities of
cooperation. Therefore, the Development Planning in the County is being guided by the following legal framework: County
Governments Act (2012), the Public Finance Management Act (2012), the Urban Areas and Cities Act (2011), the Intergovernmental
Relations Act (2012) and the National Government Coordination Act (2012).

2.4.1 Kenya Constitution (2010)

The Constitution of Kenya 2010 created a two-tier system of governance, a national and devolved county government that requires a
paradigm shift in development planning. Article 220 (2) (a) of the Constitution states that “national legislation shall prescribe the
structure of development plans and budgets”. Following the principles stated in the constitution (Chapter 6 Art 10 on National Values
and governance), development planning in Kenya should be based on integrated national values, people’s participation, equity, and
promotion of human dignity, equity, social justice and inclusiveness, equality, human rights, non-discrimination, resource mobilization,
concerns of the minorities and marginalized groups and sustainable development. The Constitution also requires an integrated
development planning framework to enhance linkage between policy, planning and budgeting. The legislation cited above presents the
legal framework that will govern planning at national and county levels.

2.4.2 The County Government Act 2012

The County Government Act 2012, in fulfillment of constitutional requirement to legislate preparation of county plans, details the goals
and procedures of “County Planning” (Part XI of the Act). County planners are required to prepare 5-year integrated county development
plans and the annual county budgets to implement them.
According to Article 102(h), county planning is expected “to provide a platform for unifying planning, budgeting, financing
programmes, implementation, and performance review”. A county planning unit shall be responsible for “coordinated integrated
development planning”. County plans will have the goal of promoting harmony with national and other county plans, land-use plans,
urban planning and environmental conservation.
The County Government Act, 2012, section 104 (1), states that, “a county government shall plan for the county and no public funds
shall be appropriated without a planning framework developed by the county executive committee and approved by the county
assembly”. It also states that the county planning framework (as in the definition above) shall integrate economic, physical, social,
environmental and spatial planning. In addition to an integrated county development plan, each county is expected to have the following:
• A County Sectoral Plan; - a program based10 year plan that are component parts of the CIDP.

61
 • A County Spatial Plan; - A 10 year GIS based database system also a component of CIDP.
• A City and Urban Areas Plan - for every city and municipalities

Urban planning process shall also be done for every settlement with a population of at least 2,000 persons. Section 107(2)) explains
that these plans “shall be the basis for all the budgeting and planning in a county”. A county planning unit has been established by this
Act to coordinate integrated development planning and to ensure that county planning is linked to national planning frameworks.

2.4.3 Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), 2012

The Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), 2012, emphasizes what the County Government Act states but puts a slightly different
emphasis on planning. Whereas the County Government Act requires a “five-year County Integrated Development Plan”, the PFMA
(Part IV Article (126) (1)) requires both a long-term and medium term plan. According to the PFMA, a budget process for the county
government in any financial year shall consist of the following stages:
• Start with an integrated development planning process, which shall contain both short term and medium term plans.
• Every county shall prepare a development plan as per Article 220 (2) of the Constitution.
• Budgets are to be based on projects and other expenditure contained in the plan.

2.4.4 Urban Areas and Cities Act, 2011

Urban Areas and Cities Act (2011) is also emphatic on the need for 5 year integrated development planning and the need to align annual
budgeting to the plan. These plans are separate from those of the county. In section 36(2) it states that “an integrated urban or city
development plan shall bind, guide, and inform all planning for development and decision-making and ensure comprehensive inclusion
of functions.”

2.5 Implementation of Sustainable Development Goals at the County Level

Sustainable Development Goals are the newly introduced agenda to be attained by the year 2030. It builds on the principle of “leaving
no one behind” and emphasizes on a holistic approach to achieving sustainable development for all.

62
The CIDP take cognizance of the country’s international commitments on the achievement of these Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs). The development agenda and strategies at the county level therefore needs to be in harmony with the national development
agenda which contributes to the overall well-being at national level. Therefore, in pursuit of the betterment of the society, improved
quality of life and higher standards of living, the proposed county interventions aims at fulfilling the Country’s Commitment to the
world through the United Nations’ accord of Sustainable Development Goals.

Goal 1: Ending poverty in all its forms everywhere – this goal aims at eradicating extereme poverty for all people (those living below
$1.25 a day), implement social protection systems and measures of the poor, ensuring equal rights to economic resources as well as
access tobasic services, control over land, build resilience of the poor to reduce vulnerability over extreme climate change events,
developing pro-poor development strategies and policies by the year 2016.

 CHAPTER THREE: REVIEW OF IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PREVIOUS CIDP

3.1 Introduction
This chapter provides a brief review on implementation of the County Integrated Development Plan for the period 2013-2017.The West
Pokot CIDP (2013-2017) was the first in a series of five year medium term plans produced under the devolved system of government.
The plan was prepared and implemented under the Kenya Constitution 2010 which significantly altered the governance structure of the
country by creating a two tier government; a national government along with 47 county governments.

3.2 Implementation Status of the CIDP (2013-2017)

The key priorities under CIDP (2013-2017) included the following core areas: Health, Education, Infrastructure, Drought Emergencies
Mitigation and Food Security. A review of the Plan indicates key achievements in all the sectors. Fourteen out of the twenty identified
flagship projects were implemented.

Analysis of County Revenue Streams

The sources of revenue for county government for the plan period 2013-2017 are as shown in the table below;

Grants

Own Revenue Analysis; The total local revenue collected amounted to Kshs 341.7 million against a target of Ksh. 400 million in the
plan. This was below the target by KShs 58.3 representing an underperformance of 14.6 percent of the target.

Equitable Share;The total receipts from county equitable share amounted to Kshs 15.78 billion against a target of Ksh. 15.89 billion
in the plan. This was below the target by KShs 0.11 billion representing an underperformance of 0.7 percent of the target.
68
Equalization Fund: The Equalization Fund is a Constitutional national revenue fund. This fund is allocated to specific counties to
improve the basic infrastructure services in those areas and regions categorized as marginalized. This fund was expected to generate an
estimated Ksh 2 billion over the plan period for financing priority programmes and projects in the CIDP. No money under this fund has
been released to date.

Conditional Allocations; The total receipts from conditional allocations amounted to Kshs 244.8 million against a target of Ksh 331.7
million in the plan. This was below the target by KShs 87.00 million representing an underperformance of 26.23 percent of the target.

Development Partners and Donor Support; The total amount received from Development Partners and Donor Support in FY
2013/2014- FY 2016/17 amounted to Kshs 37.98 million against a target of Ksh.475.8 million in the plan. This was below the target by
KShs 437.82 representing an underperformance of 92.02 percent of the target.Other development partners implemented programmes
and projects directly with community and hence was difficult to document due to lack of a coordinating framework at the county level.

Summary of Progress under the Political Pillar

During the first CIDP period, the 47 county governments and the national government were established and operationalized in line with
the constitution of Kenya, 2010.This is a major milestone and has led to positive impacts in the county‘s political and socio-economic

71
development. Key devolution institutions were also established including the county budget and economic forum and the decentralized
offices for subcounty and ward administrations.
During the period under review, several laws to implement the constitution under schedule four were passed, including County Disaster
Management Act,2015, County Ward Development Act,2014,county car loans & mortgages act,2015, county village delineation
act,2016 several county finance acts and county appropriations acts. Capacity assessment and rationalization of the county public service
was also carried out.
Summary of Notable Challenges and Lessons Learnt
This section highlight the key challenges encountered during the entire period of implementing county policies, programmes and projects
for the period 2013-2017.It also touches on the key lessons learnt during the implementation period.
Challenges
• Inadequate equitable share funding for financing development programmes in the CIDP. Late release of funds by the national
treasury was another challenge that affected programme implementation.

• Limited internal revenue base due to underdevelopment, low investment and historical marginalization of the county.

• Many incomplete projects due to initiation of too many new projects and variation of contracts and inadequate funding .This
led to accumulation of huge pending bills.

• Rapidly rising wage bill. The county wage bill has risen rapidly from 22 percent in 2013 to 37 percent in 2017.

• Weak institutional structures, systems and staff capacity gaps due to the new devolved system of government.

• Governance and oversight challenges, poor leadership in some departments and competition between the two levels of
government, the senate and the national assembly

• Inadequate county policies , regulations and county laws

• Lack of Development coordination framework between the national & county governments and other development players at
the county level.

72
 • Lack of m & e structures in line departments, inadequate projects documentation, low levels of monitoring and evaluation in
departments, data collection and utilization in decision making

• High community expectations resulting in high number of projects in the CIDP.

• Cross cutting issues; Security, HIV/AIDS, Disaster Risk Reduction, Climate change adaptation and mitigation programmes and
gender issues were not sufficiently factored /mainstreamed during sectoral resource allocation and programmes implementation.

• Project sustainability measures were not well defined.

Lessons Learnt.
• There is need to strengthen county performance management framework, civic education and public participation
• There is also need to establish a county development planning and coordination framework to bring together all development
players at the county level.
• The county government should establish an external resource mobilization unit to assist in mobilizing resources to finance
priority programmes and projects in the CIDP (2018-2022)
• There is need to strengthen county monitoring &evaluation system and ensure that M&E reports are utilized in decision making.
• Future programmes and projects should put more emphasis on sustainability measures.
• There is need to strengthen equitable distribution of resources based on accurate and reliable data.

Sector Priorities and Strategies
This sector covers private sector and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) development. Manufacturing sector’s
contribution to the GDP has remained static at 10 per cent over the last 5 years. This is attributed to inadequate and costly infrastructure,
low technology adoption, high cost of doing business, high fuel costs, and recurring droughts. At the county, trade sub-sector is faced
with inadequate utilities (especially water and electricity) and limited access to capital for MSMEs. The manufacturing sector has a
potential of spurring technology and innovation as it’s a major conduit for diffusion of new technologies into the other sectors of the
economy. This sector also has a high potential of employment creation with strong forward and backward linkages and spill over effects
that can stimulate demand for agricultural products.

Trade and Industry; to revitalize this sub-sector, the following shall be given priority over the plan period; Undertake a resource
endowment mapping in the county to establish Quantities and location of both natural and man-made resources in the county to facilitate
identification and prioritization of bankable industrial projects in the county,Develop and support of capacity building and training
programmes on technology and value addition,Conduct annual investment Fora to show case products and investment Opportunities in
96
the County, Expand the Joint Loans Board scheme to reach many traders, Enhance Licensing with a view to Rolling out an E – registry
for online licence applications and payments, Improve public private partnerships with NGO and Kenya National Chamber of Industries
(KNCCI),Develop 1 industrial park and enhance collaboration between the County Department of Vocation training to enhance skills
development for industrial purpose for the Youth.Other priorities include; Establish a technical institution for the county to strengthen
MSMEs, Establish Micro and Small Enterprise (SMEs) centres of excellence, Support Sebit Cement manufacturing plant as a Public
Private Partnership Model,Support value addition to Milk, Wool, Mangoes, Sunflower, Aloe vera and other products from the county
,Support Establishment of recreational facilities in each of the four Sub Counties so as to generate revenue as well as providing
recreational facilities to the town residents

Cooperative Development; Over the plan period, the following will be undertaken in order to unlock growth within this sub- sector;
establish County Cooperative Development Fund to help SMEs access capital, promote retail banking and expansion of agent banking
to the unbanked, promote the establishment of more deposit taking Societies and Micro Finance Services ,promote FOSA establishments
and SACCOs that take withdrawal deposits and Promote vibrant sustainable marketing Cooperative Movement

Oil, Mineral Resources and Renewable Energy: To upscale the development of this subsector in a more sustainable and organized
manner the county will undertake the following over the plan period: establish a Mineral/ Natural Resources database through Geo
spatial mapping of mineral resources, regulation of Sand harvesting, engage Tullow oil cooperation for exploration of petroleum with a
view to exploiting in Central Pokot and invite investors to support the generation of energy by use of Solar and Wind in various parts
of the County.

This sector comprises of the following departments: Agriculture and Irrigation, Pastoral Economy, Lands, Physical Planning and Urban
Development.

Subsector: Agriculture and Irrigation

Vision: A secure and a wealthy County anchored by an innovative, commercially oriented and competitive agricultural sector

Mission: To improve livelihoods of the West Pokot county residents and ensure food security through creation of an enabling
environment, provision of effective support servises and sustainable land resource management.

Subsector Development Priorities and Strategies

West Pokot County is endowed with high agricultural potential for crops and livestock. Agriculture is a fundamental pillar for sustainable
development that seeks to meet the needs of present generation without compromising those of future generation. The department of
agriculture contributes immensely to the economy of West Pokot County. There is need to empower and change the lives of communities
of West Pokot to secure right of food, contribute to reduced poverty, increase household incomes, increase bio-diversity, and adopt
agricultural methods which mitigate climate change.

The department will mainly focus on its priorities and needs in the Governor’s manifesto, public participation report and vision 2030
and creating facilitative laws, regulations and policies. The priorities will target food security, improving the communities’ household
incomes and improvement of farmers’ knowledge and skills. These priorities and needs will be addressed through establishment of
irrigation infrastructure, purchase of water pumps, promotion of traditional high value crops, promotion of cash crops, post-harvest
management(cold stores for onions and Irish potatoes, cereal produce stores),fertilizer and seed subsidy, pest and disease surveillance

100
and control(fall armyworm and maize lethal necrosis disease etc.), establishment of agricultural mechanization unit, establishment of
demonstration plots, promotion of greenhouse farming, soil and water conservation and capacity building of staff and farming
communities. The legal framework needed to support the proposed development initiatives will also be put in place.

4.5.5 HEALTH SECTOR

The concept of universal health coverage is to ensure all people obtain the health services they need without suffering financial hardship
when paying for them.According to WHO, the essential pillars are: A strong, efficient, well- run health system;a system for financing
health services;access to essential medicines and technologies and a sufficient capacity of well –trained,motivated health workers.

A healthy population is a key pillar for enhanced economic growth and development. It is also precursor for realization of the social
goals for Kenya Vision 2030. The Constitution guarantees the rights to adequate health care to every Kenyan. Against this background,
Health Sector in West Pokot County has strategically been positioned to fulfil the expectations of Kenyans through improved health
infrastructure countywide, service delivery systems and promoting access to universal health care.

Vision

A disease-free Community

Mission

To build a well-established progressive, responsive, affordable and sustainable technologically-driven, accessible and client-centered
health system for accelerated attainment of highest standards of health for all West Pokot residents.

Sector Needs, Priorities and Strategies

The sector priorities over the plan period 2018-2022 include; the elimination of communicable conditions especially diarrheal diseases
through eradication of open defecation through the Community Led Total Sanitation program and strengthening of the preventive and
114
promotive health activities through community strategy. The focus will be on disease prevention and control through community
participation and involvement. This will entail health promotion through strategic advocacy, communication and social mobilization
(ACSM), strengthening the referral system and community strategy.
Under curative and rehabilitative health services, focus will be on improving access and quality to universal healthcare at all levels. This
will be done through provision of adequate support to all the health system components ranging from health supplies to human resources
for health, provision of administrative support and establishment of a robust monitoring and evaluation system.
The enhancement of essential services through the upgrading of the county referral hospital to level 5 and also improvement of the
Chepareria, Sigor, Kacheliba, Kabichbich sub district hospitals and Alale and Makutano hospitals will increase the range and quality of
services available to county residents, prevent avoidable deaths, costly referrals and leverage on information technology through
telemedicine and use of EMR thereby enhancing efficiency and effectiveness in service delivery. Other key components of the upgrade
include targeted trainings and the construction and equipping of ICU and the Renal Unit. The completion, equipping and
operationalization of the blood bank will further prevent avoidable morbidity, mortality and referrals.
The sector is also aware of the need to restructure infrastructure investments to target tier 3 facilities i.e. the county hospitals namely
Kapenguria County Referral Hospital, Chepareria, Sigor, Kacheliba, Kabichbich Sub district hospitals and Alale and Makutano
hospitals. The health sector is also keen to invest in tier 1 or the community level by setting up six (6) community units in each sub
county. This should provide a backbone for community health services (CHS) and a platform for building capacity of community health
volunteers (CHVs) and other key resource persons. This investment in the community strategy signals the appreciation of this level of
care as a key entry point for program implementation. Furthermore the provision of the monthly stipend will go a long way in motivating
these CHVs to be more productive. In this regard, an improvement in CHS characterized by a robust, efficient and effective community
based health information system (CBHIS), disease surveillance, and hygiene and health promotion activities is being given priority.

115
Other priorities over the plan period include; Purchase of 8 additional ambulances, recruitment and provision of incentives to specialized
health workers, ensuring timely and adequate procurement and distribution of drugs and supporting provision of universal health care
by promoting enrolment to NHIF.

5.0 CHAPTER FIVE: IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORK

5.1 Introduction

This chapter identifies and examines the various institutions and structures put in place to
facilitate implementation of this plan, resource requirement and mobilization strategies,
estimated resources gap and measures for addressing it.It also seeks to inform and guide the
County government efforts towards sustainable financing of its programmes and operations.
The chapter also contains a snapshot of the resources that are available for capital projects in
order to attain citizen socioeconomic transformation. It also outlines the strategies for raising
revenue and their projections for the plan period. It reviews funding sources, provides guiding
principles, and proposes strategies for mobilizing resources to support the implementation of
the integrated Plan and the ultimate fulfillment of its vision and mission.

5.2 Institutional Framework

Article 185 of the Constitution 2010 states that the County Government shall consist of a
County Assembly and a County Executive. The roles of these institutions are critical to the
implementation of this plan. The organizational structure for West Pokot county government
is shown below;

Figure 4: County Organogram

142
 5.2.1 The County Executive Committee
The County Executive Committee has been established vide Article 176 (1) of the Constitution
2010. The County Executive comprise of the Governor and the County Executive Members,

In summary, the County Executive role in the Plan implementation will be to;

143
 1. provide leadership in the county’s development agenda in setting the overall goal,
mission and vision of the County;
2. Facilitate the coordination and alignment of integrated development plan with other
county plans, strategies and programmes of national and county governments;
3. monitor the process of planning, formulation, adoption and review of the integrated

4. facilitate approval of the county plan and submit it to the county assembly for approval;
5. supervise the implementation, administration and delivery of services in the county and
all decentralized units and agencies in the county as per the dictates of the plan;
6. submit to the county assembly an annual report on the implementation status of the
county plan;
7. Take appropriate steps to resolve any disputes or differences in connection with the
planning, formulation, adoption or review of an integrated development plan.
5.2.2 The County Assembly
In line with the Constitution and the County Government Act, the County Assembly will responsible

County Executive as well approving the county budget/expenditures. The County Assembly also has a
role in approving the borrowing and overall debt management that is supposed to finance any budget
deficit for development programmes. Therefore, this organ is crucial in ensuring that the executive is
effective and resources are used efficiently.

5.2.3 Chief Officers

Chief Officers have delegated authority from county treasury as accounting officers. They are
responsible for preparing plans for their respective entities as well as prepare estimates of
expenditure of the entity in conformity with the plans.They are also in charge of
implementation of the same plans.

5.2.5 Civil society

These are civilian pressure groups that ensure that public funds are utilized in an efficient and
effective manner. They also act as a watchdog during the implementation process thus ensuring
that projects and programs are implemented in the right place and at the right time. Civil society
will also play an important role in the Plan implementation through capacity building the
community members to understand their rights through civic education program.

5.2.6 Decentralized units

The administration of the county government has been decentralized to cover the following
areas: Kapenguria-Makutano municipality, Sub-counties; Wards and Villages. Each of the
decentralized unit shall be headed by an administrator. The sub county administrator shall be
responsible for the coordination, management and supervision of the general administrative
functions of the sub county including preparation of development plans and monitoring its
implementation. The Town administrator and ward administrators and village administrators
shall carry out the same functions at town, ward and village levels.

The village will be the lowest level of decentralizing the county activities. Each village will

governance of the county, monitor implementation of policies at village level and advising the
ward as well as sub county administrator in matters relating to that village.

To facilitate decentralization, democracy and good governance in the county, the following
sub-structures have been put in place to ensure popular participation in the development and

5.2.7 Inter-Governmental Relationships and County Intergovernmental Forum

The national government and county government has been accorded a framework for
consultation and cooperation. Intergovernmental relations Act calls for respect for the
functional and institutional integrity of the two levels of Government as well as constitutional
status of the two levels and the institutions of government established at either level of
government.

This Act also calls for promotion of equality and equity in service delivery, consultation and
cooperation and promotion of accountability in decision making. The criteria for transferring

146
powers, functions and competencies between the two levels of governments have also been
provided by this Act. Dispute resolution mechanisms are also provided.

This county intergovernmental forum will strive to harmonize all the services rendered in the
county by the two governments. It will also be coordinate development activities and
intergovernmental functions in the county.

5.2.8 County Development Coordinating Forum

This forum will be made up of all the development agencies working within the county. These
include International and National NGOs, CBOs, civil societies, private sector and other
development partners that are active in the county. This forum will be meeting four times a
year in order to spear head the following functions;
• To harmonize plans and development projects and programs.

• Share information on the existing development partners working within the county.

• Explore ways of strengthening partnerships and promoting public participation in the

decision making process.

• Exploring ways of funding and possibilities of cofounding of projects and programs.

5.2.9 County Planning Unit

This will be the central point in charge of coordinating development projects and programs at
the county level. The unit will perform the following functions;

• Coordinate preparation of CIDP and sectoral plan preparation;

• Ensure there is proper linkage between policy, planning and budgeting.

• Review of the CIDP progress including mid-term review;

• Integrating National plans and other national goals into the county plans;

• Building a spatial database system for projects/programs within the county using GIS.

• Collection, collation, storage and updating of data and information suitable for the
planning process.

147
 • Prepare and market investment profiles to different stakeholders.

5.2.10 Monitoring and Evaluation Unit

Whereas monitoring is a process of collecting, analysing, and reporting data on a project or
programme’s inputs, activities, outputs, outcomes and impacts as well as external factors to track
whether actual investment programme results are being achieved, evaluation is a systematic and
objective assessment of an ongoing or completed project, programme or policy, its design,
implementation and results to determine the relevance and fulfilment of objectives, efficiency,
effectiveness, impact and sustainability.

Monitoring aims to provide managers, decision makers and other stakeholders with regular feedback on
progress in implementation of activities specified in the development plans. Evaluation informs whether
whether project/programme activities are moving toward, or away from project/programme objective
or management goals, and why. It provides lessons learnt and recommendations for future improvement.

Monitoring and Evaluation thus helps in providing data on program progress and effectiveness,
helps keep the implementation process on track and identify and resolve implementation
problems of the CIDP.

5.2.11 Developmental Partners/Agencies

The county has in the past years enjoyed assistance from government, non-governmental,
multilateral and bilateral organization/agencies in various ways. Some of the key organizations
in the county include Community Development Trust Fund that is funding social infrastructural
facilities that is, ACTED, ACF, World Vision, SIKOM, Action Aid, Red cross, CDF, banks
and MFIs, KVDA, NACC etc. This poses a challenge of coordination which shall be addressed
by the forums like county projects committee, intergovernmental forum, county development
coordinating forum and county planning unit.

148
5.3 Amendment of the Plan

The County Government Act (2012) outlines steps to be taken in order to amend this Plan. The
proposal to amend the Plan shall be undertaken by the County Executive committee by a
resolution. The amendment will then be subjected to the County Assembly for approval or
rejection. A proposal to emend the Plan will be supported by a memorandum explaining the
reasons for the proposal. In amending the Plan, the county governments as well as urban
centres to be affected by the proposal, shall be consulted. For the amendment to be considered
by the county assembly, all the members will have been given adequate notice. The proposed
amendment will also be published for public comment for a period not less than three weeks.
This is to allow the public an opportunity to provide input on the said proposal.

5.4 The Resource Mobilization Framework

In order to implement the Plan effectively, a robust framework for resource mobilization is
needed. There is need for the county government to diversify its resource base. The
diversification should consider various types of investments, donor sources and conditions they
attach to the funding so as to reduce the risk of losing funding. This plan lists several resource
mobilization strategies, ranging from long-term, short term, new and potential revenue sources
and donors that could potentially enhance funding to the county government priorities.

5.4.1 Sources of Revenue for the County

The following sources will provide the basis for funding the county development programmes
as specified in this plan;

Equitable Share

This shall be the main source of revenue for the county government of West Pokot for financing
both recurrent and development expenditure. It is the equitable share of the revenue raised
nationally that is allocated to county governments. It is expected that Ksh 30.2 billion revenue
will be realized over the plan period from this allocation.

149
Equalization fund

This fund is allocated to specific counties to improve the basic infrastructure services in those
areas and regions categorized as marginalized. It finances basic services including water, roads,
health facilities and electricity to marginalized areas to the extent necessary to bring the quality
of those services in those areas to the level generally enjoyed by the rest of the nation. This will
fund a significant proportion of the identified priority projects. This fund will generate an
estimate of Ksh 1.5 billion over the plan period for project financing.

Internal Revenue and Investments

Internal revenue is all money derived by or on behalf of the county government from levies,
rates, fees, charges or any other source as authorized by the Constitution or an Act of
Parliament. The county government will expand its revenue base by sealing existing leakages
and loopholes in the collection and administration of internal revenue, revenue automation,
strengthening enforcement unit and collection of land rates.

It will also explore investments in housing, tourism, mining, agriculture and livestock
subsectors. The county will also boost road infrastructure, provide an enabling business
environment to improve trade and economic integration as an indirect means of boosting
revenue generation for the county.

The county government will also promote private investments by providing an enabling
environment. This will accelerate socioeconomic development and boost revenue generation.
A revenue forecast of Ksh 779 million is expected and the revenue generated would support
priority programmes and projects identified for implementation over the plan period.

Borrowings Guaranteed by the National Government

The county government will take loans within and outside Kenya mainly to finance capital
projects. This will be done with the approval of the County Assembly and guarantees from the
national government. While raising these loans either for cash management purposes or for
project financing, it will ensure that the loans, the terms and conditions for the loan are set out
150
in writing and are in accordance with; Article 212 of the Constitution, Sections 58 and 142 of
the public finance management act (2012), the fiscal responsibility principles and the financial
objectives of the county government set out in its most recent County Fiscal Strategy Paper and
the debt management strategy of the county government over the medium term.

In borrowing money, the county government will also ensure that it’s financing needs and
payment obligations are met at the lowest possible cost in the market that is consistent with a
prudent degree of risk, while ensuring that the overall level of public debt is sustainable.

Development Partners and Donor Support

This comprise voluntary contributions/grants to finance the priority projects and programmes
of West Pokot County by governments, UN Agencies, Multi-Donor Trust Funds, Inter-
Governmental Organizations, International Financial Institutions (IFIs) and private donors,
including private sector entities and foundations.

Funds received in the form of grants or donations from development partners/donors will only
be spent in accordance with Articles 221 and 223 of the Constitution. Regulations approved by
Parliament provides for the administration, control and management of grants, including;

a) Procedures to ensure that grants are spent on the basis of the integrated national
development plan;

b) Procedures for the allocation and disbursement of the grants

c) Requiring that grants be used only to finance programmes within the integrated
development plan;

d) The publication of transparent criteria for the allocation of grants;

e) Requiring specific terms and conditions in agreements to which grant recipients are
subjected;

f) Procedures for the budgeting, financial management, accounting and reporting of grants
by grants recipients;
151
 g) Procedures under which a third party may be authorized to receive, control or pay public
money as a grant; and

h) Measures to ensure that a third party authorized to receive control or pay public money
as a grant, or responsible for any other aspect of administration of a grant, is subject to
the same obligations as a public officer.
The county government will support its service departments on proposal development
initiatives with the aim of securing development support from donors. It will also ensure public
participation, transparency and accountability in the utilization of donor funds.

Public Private Partnerships

This is an arrangement between a contracting authority (county government) and a private party
under which a private party

a) Undertakes to perform a public function or provide a service on behalf of the contracting

authority;

b) Receives a benefit for performing a public function by way of-

-Compensation from a public fund;

-Charges or fees collected by the private party from users or consumers of a service
provided to them; or

-A combination of such compensation and such charges or fees; and

-Is generally liable for risks arising from the performance of the function in accordance
with the terms of the project agreement

Public private partnerships provide for the participation of the private sector in the financing,
construction, development, operation, or maintenance of capital intensive infrastructure or
development projects of the government through concessions and other contractual
arrangements.

152
Particular interest will be put on Build and Transfer (BoT) model where the County will build
infrastructural projects and transfer the running of the institutions to other interested parties but
within some agreed principles and agreements.

Other National Government’s Devolved Funds

This includes the constituency development fund, social protection fund, women fund,
HIV/AIDS fund, youth fund, uwezo fund among others. These funds will finance a significant
proportion of the priority projects identified for implementation. They will also finance
economic empowerment group projects. All these grants will play an important role in socio
economic empowerment of the community.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Corporate companies will continue to offer support in the areas of health, education,
environment, entrepreneurship, water and sanitation, welfare and sports. The county
government believes corporate institutions in west Pokot and other areas will continue to be a
caring partner for all our communities, and at branch levels this will be exhibited through their
support for a number of local needy institutions, school events, charity walks and sponsorship
towards deserving causes.

CHAPTER SIX: MONITORING AND EVALUATION FRAMEWORK

6.1 Introduction
This chapter seeks to outline the Monitoring and Evaluation institutional arrangements that will
track and report on CIDP implementation progress. The section describes county monitoring
and evaluation structure, data collection analysis, reporting and information sharing.

6.2 County Monitoring and Evaluation System

Monitoring and evaluating performance is a key element of CIDP implementation. The County
Integrated Monitoring and Evaluation System (CIMES) will provide the guidelines to monitor
the implementation of the identified priority projects and programmes. The following
organogram shows the organisation for M&E framework at county level;

The County framework and procedures on Monitoring and Evaluation shall apply to all
programmes and projects supported by the County Government,non–state actors and the
National government projects implemented within the county. The County Monitoring and
Evaluation System will feed into the National Integrated Monitoring and Evaluation (NIMES)
to track the national goals and Vision.

156
The county M&E framework establishes six (6) M&E committees for proper functioning of
M&E at all level in the County administrative structures. The following are the committees
which will make the system operational;

County M&E Committee (CoMEC); This Committee shall be chaired by Chief Officer for
Economic Planning. Members shall be the Chief Officers, representatives from national
government and Non-governmental actors at the county level. The M&E unit shall provide
secretariat.
Technical Oversight Committee (TOC); this committee shall be Co- chaired by; Chief
Officer, Economic Planning and County Commissioner. Members comprise of County
Directors for County government Departments, Heads of Departments from the National
Government at the county level and one representative from the Non State Actors. The M&E
unit shall provide secretariat.
Ministerial M&E Committees (MMEC);All the county departments shall have M&E
Committee that will spearhead M&E activities within the department.The Committee will be
chaired by Chief Officer .Membersare directors within the department, department sub-county
heads, national government directors and non- state actors’ representatives in the sector.
Sub County M&E Committee (SMEC);Sub- County M&E committees shall be Co- Chaired
by Sub-County Administrator and Deputy County Commissioner .Membership shall comprise
of all Sub-County Departmental Heads, ward administrators and non- state actors operating

Village M&E Committee (VMEC);The committee shall be chaired by village administrator
and members will comprise all Departmental Officers in the village, assistant chief and Non-
state actors operating within the village.
The M&E committee at each level shall ensure continuous tracking of policies, programmes
and projects and ensure accurate flow of information on implementation progress to inform
decision making. The county M&E unit will take a lead role in coordinating the county M&E
committees and ensuring for regular monitoring and reporting during the implementation
period.
157
6.3 Data collection, Analysis, and Reporting
Monitoring and evaluation will be done using the expected outcomes, indicators, and targets
for gauging performance instruments outlined inTable 16.Data will be collected and analysed
on the progress of projects/programmes implementation of CIDP in coordination of county
M&E unit and County M&E committees, data collection instruments will be developed to
capture the outputs and outcomes indicated in the implementation framework.

The plan will be subjected to two evaluations; Mid-term evaluation and review and final
evaluation. The Mid-term evaluation and review will be conducted at the third year of
implementation; to assess how the plan is meeting its objectives and implementation timelines,
identify and document key lessons learnt and best practices that can be adopted and also to give
recommendation on ways of addressing identified gaps and advise on possible areas to be
changed for the remaining Plan period. Final evaluation will be conducted at the end of the
project to establish the extent to which the CIDP has realized the planned objectives and
expected results outcomes.

Reporting

Reporting progress of implementation will be critical in adjusting strategic directions and

measuring performance. Progress reports will be made on quarterly basis. Continuous
monitoring will be undertaken and county Quarterly and Annual progress reports will be
produced.This will assess the implementation progress and enable to identify and take
necessary action to address emerging challenges

The report will outline projected targets, achievements, and challenges. The report will be
prepared by County Monitoring and evaluation unit in collaboration with M&E committee at
all levels, which will be submitted to county M&E committee for consideration and adoption
by county executive.

Information sharing and reporting will be key in assessing implementation of CIDP. Various
M&E committees will be meeting quarterly to share progress implementation and report
emerging challenges.The validated reports adopted by the executives will be submitted to
County Assembly to inform progress on CountyCIDP implementation. The adopted reports on
implementation status will be made available quarterly and annually through various
dissemination forums and through the county website.

158
6.4 M&E Outcome Indicators

This section provides the monitoring and evaluation of outcome Indicators by sector. This will allow
implementers and decision-makers alike to assess progress towards the achievement of county
development priorities.
