The state-of-the-art facility named Machakos Cancer Care and Research Centre, is located at the Machakos Level 5 Hospital.
Governor Mutua also revealed that his government was planning on purchasing Ksh300 million worth of radiotherapy machines, aimed at ensuring the availability of several treatment centres across the county.
"The centre will be a one-stop-shop for the screening and treatment of cancer. My focus remains the people of Machakos," he tweeted.
Mutua lauded the health workers, citing the fact that to date, 52,012 babies had been successfully born in ambulances, while their mothers were been ferried to the hospital.
He reiterated his commitment to ensuring each and every member of his county as well as the greater Ukambani region, had access to quality health care.
