Sh6Billion Waste Recyling Plant Raises Job Prospects Kakamega
The construction of a multi-billion-shilling waste-to-energy plant in Mumias East, Kakamega County has started a decade after it was initiated.
A delegation of top county officials led by Governor Wycliffe Oparanya and a foreign investor presided over the groundbreaking ceremony of the Sh6 billion project expected to incinerate approximately 800 tonnes of municipal solid waste per day.
The event gives hope to a community that has been struggling to put food on the table since the collapse of Mumias Sugar Company.
Governor Wycliffe Oparanya
Oparanya’s administration purchased the 15-acre piece of land when he was first elected governor in 2013. The parcel has been lying idle, dashing hopes of the project ever taking off.
Dickson Orata, whose home is close to the site said the groundbreaking ceremony has rekindled hope among the residents.
