Sixty-nine ECDE centres that stalled two years ago in Nandi after Sh200 million construction materials were stolen will be completed in the next three months, Governor Stephen Sang has said. Only three ECDE centres had been completed before the materials were stolen. The stalled ECDEs have been one of the black spots in the administration of Governor Sang since he took over, but the county chief said the ECDE centres were unique and would be completed. “Unlike other counties which have been putting up only classes, we are putting up modern ECDE centres complete with staff rooms and other facilities,” Sang said. Rono cited continued graft in the county's education department, including loss of construction material for the ECDE centres.
