Coffee farmers in Bungoma County have been urged to plant more coffee to make good use of the coffee industry that has been built in Musese and improve their lives.
Speaking to www.westfm.co.ke, a political activist in Chwele Kabuchai ward Constant Biketi stated that there is need for farmers to practice agri-business to benefit from the coffee industry that was put up by the county government of Bungoma.
“When we talk about industries matters, we have been suffering a lot for we didn’t have our own industry here but now here it is just near us, therefore let us take advantage and make use of it,” Biketi stated.
Mr. Biket thanked the county government of Bungoma for putting up the coffee industry in that region stating that it will really give a boost to the residents and farmers in general.
He said the job opportunities that the coffee industry will create shall improve livelihood hence curb the problem of joblessness.
“Let us embrace this opportunity and plant more coffee that will enable us improve our living standards,” he emphasized.
Biketi urged parents to invest a lot in the education of their children bearing in mind that education is the key to ones success in life.
“The only asset you can give to your child is education, as parents when you want to do long term investment, educate your child and you will never live in regrets,” Biketi recommended.
“Education is the key to success therefore our children should just be educated, as parents as you get little out of farming, take your children to school because this will help eradicate poverty that is high amongst our families,” he affirmed.
