<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Wanga elders have today warned Luhyas
against electing people that crippled Mumias Sugar Company when they had power
to save the only economic source in western province.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Speaking at a meeting in shiembekho restaurant in Matungu constituency, Mr. Peter Mumia Shitawa who is the current Nabongo warned Luhyas against electing those leaders that had evidence that would take Kidero to jail for freezing Mumias sugar on the governorship position. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Up to date millions of residents of Mumias youth dropped out of school as they soley depended on Mumias Sugar Company as their main source of income. Mr. Shitawa asked Luhyas not to vote for Ayub Savula and Bonny Khalwale as governor for it will be suicidal to their economy as people will languish in poverty forever.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Lugari MP and Kakamega gubernatorial aspirant in 2022 Ayub Savula who is a former journalist is said to have had massive intensive evidence against Dr. Evans Kidero, the then Mumias sugar company CEO. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The evidence could have seen Kidero’s property repossessed and Mumias sugar reopened. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">When Kidero knew the massive evidence against him was going to bring him down, he approached Ayub savula with a bribe totaling to 300 million shillings. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Savula on the other hand rejected the bribe and asked Kidero to show him “how to fish” from the sweat of Luhyas. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This is when Kidero introduced savula to the business of importing cheap sugar from Uganda and repackaging it into Mumias sugar company packets. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="717" height="863" src="https://www.dailytrends.co.ke/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/ccac5e4d-feba-46ec-ae3d-b5118622b224.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-6225" srcset="https://www.dailytrends.co.ke/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/ccac5e4d-feba-46ec-ae3d-b5118622b224.jpg 717w, https://www.dailytrends.co.ke/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/ccac5e4d-feba-46ec-ae3d-b5118622b224-249x300.jpg 249w, https://www.dailytrends.co.ke/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/ccac5e4d-feba-46ec-ae3d-b5118622b224-585x704.jpg 585w" sizes="(max-width: 717px) 100vw, 717px" /></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The two became millionaires and hence the source of Savula’s massive wealth and intention to become the governor.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">On the other hand former Kakamega senator Dr.  Bonny Khalwale tabled massive evidence against Kidero in the senate.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This evidence was enough to impeach Kidero as the governor of Nairobi should he have been found guilty of corruption.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Kidero being a corruption mafia, he summoned the poor beggar khalwale to a hotel in Uganda and offered him a bribe worth 20 million., the money the polygamous khalwale could not reject and ended up selling the Luhya people to the dogs.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Should the people of Kakamega County listen
to peter, the second Mumia, then it is obvious that Khalwale and Savula stand
no chance of becoming governors of Kakamega county come 2022 and should not
waste their finances on the campaigns.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Currently Kakamega County stands as one of the most developed counties after the introduction of devolved system of government.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"> Bungoma County senator Moses Wetangula on Friday morning found himself in a hard tussle with Kenyans on Twitter after he issued his piece of advice on KCB&#8217;s move to put Mumias Sugar Company under receivership.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ponangipalli Venkata Ramana Rao, who KCB appointed as the receiver-manager on September 20, arrived at the company premises around 3.30 pm on Tuesday escorted by police officers from Mumias Police Station ready to take control of the struggling factory. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"> Rao then went to the administration block and issued managers with his notice of appointment from KCB. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The move has attracted mixed reactions from a section of leaders, with Wetangula taking to his twitter account to give his comments.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">He said allowing Mumias to go under receivership is a terrible mistake, arguing that receiverships have never saved any enterprise.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Wetangula further noted that he was going to bring together key leaders from the region to respond.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;Allowing mumias to go under receivership a terrible mistake. Recieverships have never saved any enterprise. With Gov holding substantial interests in kcb &amp; msc the move on mumias is sinister. I will bring together key leaders from our region to respond,&#8221; reads his post.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">But Kenyans on Twitter did not take any of his advice, going ahead to tell him off the matter.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Some argued that the same leaders from the region are the ones who sat and watched Mumias being mismanaged. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Some told him to kindly give other alternatives too as he responds, arguing that they can&#8217;t just say it won&#8217;t work without giving other sustainable solutions to the problem.</p>
