Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya has praised county employees for their outstanding work after achieving the top rank among governors in the country.

During a celebration attended by workers and Kitale residents, Governor Natembeya attributed this success to the exceptional personnel in his county and the spirit of teamwork.

He challenged all employees, from junior staff to senior county officials, to strive for maintaining the top position.

Governor Natembeya stated, “We now have to aim higher but remain at number one.

This can only be achieved if we continue working together. No staff should undermine our efforts if we wish to sustain this position,” he added with a smile.

On Tuesday, Governor Natembeya and his Homa Bay counterpart, Gladys Wanga, were recognized as the best-performing governors in the country according to a survey conducted by Infotrak Company.
