NAIROBI, Kenya Apr 9 – Tycoon Narendra Raval of Devki Steel Mills has praised President William Ruto’s reforms, asserting their significance during the launch of his Cemtech Limited clinker plant in West Pokot.
Raval expressed deep appreciation for Ruto’s dedication to Kenya saying many businesses were on the verge of closure.
“Ruto loves this country so much that I do not have words to thank him,” he said.
He went further to advocate for a prolonged presidency, suggesting that Kenya needs Ruto in office for at least 25 years to fully realize the transformative reforms and development initiatives.
Attributing the sustainability of businesses, including his own, to Ruto’s leadership, Raval emphasized, “You have done a lot to keep companies afloat; we could have closed by now.”
Highlighting the substantial tax contributions of his company to the government, Raval revealed that Devki Group pays Sh1 billion in taxes monthly, underscoring its commitment to national development.
“We commend Devki Group of Companies for establishing this Sh45 billion plant, which will transform the face of West Pokot County through economic resurgence,” the president said.
Pokot South MP David Pkosing echoed Raval’s sentiments, endorsing the idea of constitutional amendments to facilitate a prolonged Ruto administration.
He expressed readiness to explore legislative changes, declaring, “Let us change the constitution, what’s the problem?”
The inauguration of Cemtech Limited, a subsidiary of Devki Group, marked a significant milestone in Kenya’s industrial landscape.
The Sh45 billion clinker plant, situated in Kipkomo, is poised to produce approximately 6,000 metric tons of clinker daily, serving as a crucial component in cement manufacturing.
With an annual capacity to produce two million tons of clinker, the plant is expected to cater to the cement demands of the entire East African region.
The launch of Cemtech Limited underscores the commitment of Devki Group and its chairman, Narendra Raval, to contribute to Kenya’s industrial growth and economic prosperity.
