Adressing journalists on Tuesday at his Nyamira residence, Nyagarama said if farmers continue with the strikes, they stand to lose a lot together with the tea workers while the factory managements continue drawing their salaries.

 "If they strike they will mess up with everything, they have a right to ask about their payment but let them follow the due process," said Nyagarama.

The county boss further said there are factors that are followed in payments hence the reason for different figures from different parts of the country.
