Posta Corporation of Kenya has unveiling Big Four Agenda commemorative stamps that are already in the market.
The stamps bear the images of the four pillars of government development program, launched by President Uhuru in December 2017.
The idea is to use the images to effectively communicate the government development programme and create awareness among citizens, thereby marshaling the needed support for the implementation of the plan.
In a statement read on behalf of ICT cabinet secretary Joe Mucheru by Information secretary Judy Munyinyi, the stamp depicts the country’s national roadmap to prosperity and industrial development.
The development agenda was launched by President Uhuru Kenyatta on December 2017, with the key objective of transforming standards of living among citizens and place the country on the path to becoming an upper middle income nation by 2030.
The programme aims at spurring social economic development that will grow employment and create wealth.
The four pillars are manufacturing, affordable housing, the universal health coverage and food security.
PCK Chairman Nick Salat termed the new development a special gift to their customers and clients, while promising more goodies before the end of the year.
The Corporation is intending to launch a commemoration edition of sickle cell anaemia which will be officially launched on 19 June 2019, in partnership with the children Sickle Cell Foundation.
“The Postal Corporation of Kenya will contribute towards the Big Four Agenda as well as continue supporting the stakeholders both in the private and public sector,” CS Mucheru said.
“To see to that, the commemorative stamps are now available at post offices countrywide and you are all invited to get yourselves the First Day covers adorned with the commemorative stamps highlighting the Big Four Agenda.
“The Big Four Agenda commemorative stamps will as well depict the four pillars of the social economic agenda for national development which include affordable housing, universal health coverage, enhancing manufacturing and food security and nutrition.”
