Kenyans have contributed at least Sh125 million into the government’s affordable housing programme, which has so far seen about 300 people allocated the low cost houses.

Housing Principal Secretary (PS) Charles Hinga told the Business Daily Thursday that the first batch of houses in Ngara, Nairobi, was complete and that 300 homeowners paid up the 12.5 percent of the total worth of the units they are looking forward to buy.
