Migori Senator Eddy Oketch has appealed to Kenyans to move beyond political divisions and actively engage in the ongoing national discussions on Vision 2060. Speaking during a television interview on August 13, 2026, he emphasized the importance of the dialogue, which focuses on Kenya’s future economic framework and investment culture.
Oketch cautioned that ignoring these conversations due to political affiliations could result in missing out on critical changes shaping the country’s trajectory. "If you miss this conversation because of your political affiliation, then you are going to miss a major thing that is going to happen in our country," he stated.
Shaping Kenya’s Economic Future
The senator highlighted that Vision 2060 discussions are centered on redefining capital structures and investment approaches in Kenya. He noted that some initiatives aligned with this vision have already begun under President William Ruto’s administration and parliamentary actions.
He urged citizens to prioritize long-term national interests over partisan politics, stressing that the outcomes of the dialogue will influence Kenya’s economic direction for decades.
Inclusive National Conversation
As Vision 2030 nears completion, Vision 2060 aims to establish a new development framework through broad consultation involving government officials, lawmakers, private sector stakeholders, experts, and the public.
Senator Oketch encouraged all Kenyans to participate regardless of political leanings, underscoring that the decisions made will shape the country’s social and economic priorities well into the future.
