Kitui Central parliamentary aspirant Boniface Mutisya Musambi has appealed to President William Ruto to consider tarmacking the Museve–Kamandio road, pushing for additional infrastructure investment in the constituency ahead of the 2027 General Election.
Musambi, popularly known as Nzeve Nzau, made the request on Sunday, October 25, 2026, when President Ruto visited Kitui County to preside over the groundbreaking ceremony for a KSh 200 million Student Village at the Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) Kitui Campus.
The proposed road would run from Kwa Ngindu through Museve, Waluku and Miambani to Kamandio, linking several communities and potentially improving transport connectivity for residents.

Musambi wants the government to consider the route for tarmacking alongside ongoing road construction projects, arguing for additional investment in the constituency’s transport infrastructure.
If implemented, the project could ease the movement of people and goods, improve access to markets and public services, and support economic activity in communities along the corridor.
The appeal came during the launch of the KMTC student accommodation project, which is expected to provide housing for 580 students. The KSh 200 million development forms part of the government’s investment in learning infrastructure and the training of health professionals.
KMTC Kitui Campus currently has 1,297 students pursuing various health training programmes. During the event, the President also reiterated the government’s commitment to supporting students through Higher Education Loans Board (HELB) financing and strengthening the country’s health workforce training capacity.
Musambi serves as Director of Coordination in the Office of the State House Spokesperson and is seeking the Kitui Central parliamentary seat on a United Democratic Alliance (UDA) ticket in the 2027 elections.
He previously contested the constituency’s parliamentary seat in the 2022 General Election and is now pursuing another bid, with infrastructure development featuring among the issues he is raising with the national government.
However, it remains unclear whether the proposed Kwa Ngindu–Museve–Waluku–Miambani–Kamandio road has received formal approval, secured funding or been assigned an implementation timeline.
For residents along the proposed route, the next key development will be whether the request translates into a confirmed government commitment.
As the 2027 election approaches, the proposed road is likely to draw attention to infrastructure needs in Kitui Central and the progress of development projects sought by local leaders and aspirants.
