Drama in conflict over Kenya’s largest sugar factory

There has been a big change in the fight to take control of Kenya’s main factory that produces sugar.

Mumias Sugar, which is partly owned by the government, has been facing difficulties since 2019 and is looking for new investments.

It has become unpleasant because many rich and powerful people, including some from Uganda, want to take over the company.

Then President William Ruto stepped in and issued a warning to the fighting groups.

When he went to places where sugar is grown in the west, he said that they are taking advantage of farmers and people who buy sugar, using strong words like “crooks, thieves, and conmen”. He also mentioned that he gave them three choices. They have three options: leave Kenya, go to jail, or go to heaven. There is no other choice available.

The comments made by someone upset human rights organizations. However, these comments persuaded one of the businesspeople to no longer be interested in Mumias Sugar. They dropped several legal cases on Thursday.

This has made things more exciting for people who enjoy the drama, but the future of Mumias Sugar is still uncertain.
