President William Ruto has criticised Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka for questioning the source of funds used to pay sugarcane farmers at Mumias Sugar Factory.
Speaking today to residents of Nambale, Busia County, Ruto defended his administration's financial transparency and efficiency in managing the sugar sector. "I promised to streamline operations at Mumias when I visited last year, and we have delivered.
Workers are now paid their dues monthly, farmers receive payments weekly, and bonuses have been issued," said Ruto.
He dismissed Kalonzo's concerns about the source of the funds, stating, "I wonder when leaders question why sugarcane farmers are receiving bonuses.
