"Construction of a State Lodge, which will also house the County Commissioner’s residence, is nearing completion," the statement read.
Construction works started as soon as President Kenyatta announced that the next Mashujaa Day celebrations would be held in Kirinyaga County.
The Kirinyaga State Lodge is the second State Lodge in Mt Kenya, the other one being the Sagana State Lodge.
