A section of Western Kenya Members of Parliament and Senators have threatened to lead protests if the national government fails to halt the leasing of the Nzoia sugar factory.
In a press briefing, the Butere lawmaker, Tindi Mwale, claimed that leaders from the region will use 'all mechanisms' to oppose the leasing, as they claim that the tendering process was not transparent.
The MP has further noted that lawmakers in the regions are set to table the matter in court to halt the leasing process. "We will use all mechanisms, even if it is to go to protests or to the courts.
And we also want to know why there was a court order and the court order was not respected," Mwale stated.
