To my constituency representatives (mps) , The constituency Innovation Hubs will create more jobs in our respective constituencies.

Cost of each innovation hub is KES. 1,169,256 (incl of VAT), since each constituency is expected to have four hubs, Mps will need to set a side a total of KES 4,677,027 from their CDF budget for the project.
