Sifuna promises to revert Mumias back to public, if elected Politics 19 min ago Listen

Led by Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna, Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya, Vihiga Senator Godfrey Osotsi and his Kakamega counterpart Boni Khalwale, the leaders promised to turn around the economy of not only the Western region, but the entire country should Mr Sifuna be elected president in 2027.

Speaking in Mumias Town, Mr Sifuna said the area used to be one of the most thriving in the country, economically but now remains a shell of its former self because of poor leadership and collapse of Mumias Sugar Factory that used to be their source of livelihood.

While maintaining respect for Kisumu Governor Prof Anyang’ Nyong’o who is part of a team of distinguished scholars tasked by President Ruto to formulate Kenya's new development blueprint, Mr Sifuna said that the country needed a new generation of leaders to take charge.
