Kitui West Member of Parliament, Hon. Edith Vethi Nyenze, has officially rolled out the Annual National Government–Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) Bursary Application for the 2025/2026 Financial Year, reaffirming her strong commitment to education and social empowerment across the constituency.

The bursary programme targets learners in Grade 10, secondary schools, universities, colleges, and other tertiary institutions, with priority given to needy and deserving learners from all four wards of Kitui West. The initiative aims to cushion students and their families against financial hardships that often disrupt access to education with others even forced to drop out of school.

According to a circular seen by Ukambani News Hub, the bursary application process will be conducted through a 6-day public participation exercise beginning on Monday, January 19, 2026.
