Myanga Market in Bumula Sub County, Bungoma County, has been earmarked for an upgrade to a modern market.
Speaking at St. Joseph’s Bukirimo Secondary School in Kimaeti Ward, Bungoma Governor Kenneth Lusaka disclosed that his administration is working on accomplishing their pledges.
“Modern markets enhance the flow of businesses and trading activities. For sustainability, we have laid structures for upgrading our major markets,” he divulged.
He added that his administration has already put in place possible tax holiday regulations that have already been forwarded to the County Assembly for approval.
“We are introducing tax holidays to cushion our traders and boost their enterprises since we’re in tough economic times,” he stated.
Lusaka further assured residents that the county trade loan process is at its tail end, urging them to plan adequately in readiness for disbursement.
“Vetting of trade loan beneficiaries will take place to ensure eligible individuals and groups are awarded, so put your house in order,” he affirmed.
The governor committed to incorporating all Sub Counties into his administration, noting that none will be left out of the upcoming appointments.
“My administration is all-inclusive. We are creating balance to accommodate all,” he reiterated.
The county boss gave a personal contribution of 150 iron sheets and 100 bags of cement to aid in the roofing and completion of the school’s laboratory.
