According to Ibucha tea buying center Chaiperson James Oruko the center has been serving the residents for more than ten years now and the conditions it is at now is risky for the farmers who use it for it can fall any time.
He added that they have tried to call for any help from the area Mp James Gesami but all has been in vain and they are now looking forward to receive any information from the CDF Committee on regards to the funding of the construction of the new tea buying center.
“we have tried to raise funds but unfortunately the farmer’s muscle can’t allow them to build this center any time soon and therefore the Constituency development fund kitty would be of great importance to us” said Oruko
Upon contacting the West Mugirango CDF offices Douglas Areba committee member said that they have already received a letter from the farmers in the area and they will be considered once the funds are released by the National government.
