As the Chief Executive and Administrative Officer of the Municipal Council of Thika, it is my mandate to ensure that the Council’s objectives, programmes and management priorities are realised, so as to achieve good governance and improved service delivery for enhanced social - economic development.

The prime objectives of the Municipal Council are:

• To provide directly or in partnership with other stakeholders and development partners, access to education, water and health services
• To develop appropriate policies and regulation, water and health services
• To ensure safe and sustainable environment
• To provide reliable and properly maintained infrastructure
• To harness the local and external revenue sources and institute good governance policies to ensure financial sustainability of the Council
• To establish an institutional management framework that is responsive to the general demands of the population

It is imperative that we rally behind our goal of RESTORING THIKA'S GLORY AS THE BIRMINGHAM OF KENYA. This is a long-term process requiring dedication, focus and systematic review of the Municipal Council’s strategies and plans – in order to effectively respond to the changing global, regional and local environment – in line with our national vision of making KENYA AN INDUSTRIALISED NATION BY 2030.

Collectively let us transform THIKA, in the spirit of our Town’s motto UMOJA NI NGUVU!

FELIX G.MBIUKI

TOWN CLERK
