Hon. Yusuf Hassan — Kamukunji MP

Eastleigh North has emerged as one of Kamukunji’s most dynamic wards, driven by sustained investment in education, infrastructure, and commercial growth.Once constrained by overcrowded schools and poor road access, the ward has undergone visible transformation that is reshaping daily life for learners, traders, and residents alike.

Education remains central to progress in Eastleigh North. Several institutions have benefited from targeted investments aimed at improving learning conditions and inclusivity.

Construction of 15 new classrooms, modern toilets, and disability-friendly facilities at St. Teresa’s Boys Primary School
Rehabilitation and renovation of New Eastleigh Primary School
Renovation works completed at Eastleigh High School

Zawadi Mixed Secondary is in Eastleigh North

These upgrades have reduced congestion, improved sanitation, and restored dignity to public education in the ward.

Roads, Drainage & Public Safety

For decades, poor road conditions and flooding limited movement and posed safety risks. Major upgrades have changed this reality.

The result has been safer movement, extended business hours, and improved access for emergency services.

Improved infrastructure and security have strengthened Eastleigh North’s position as a regional commercial centre.
