Well, within just two weeks Makueni governor H E Prof Kivutha Kibwana has launched two factories, Milk and Mango processing plants meanwhile nothing is happening in Tana River and Kwale counties the home of best mangoes in the country, nothing is happening in Gusii region the home of bananas and milk, nothing is happening in Meru, nothing is happening anywhere but just in Makueni, well atleast in Machakos Mutua is painting roads and lying to the world that its tarmack.

Sample this:

1. Makueni Industrial Game Changer is Here

The Makueni Fruit Processing Plant engines have roared to life again, to process this season’s mango harvest.

Over 72 Metric tonnes of raw mango all from Makueni farmers had been delivered to the factory.

By the end of the season, the factory is projected to process 2100 metric tonnes of raw mango from across the country, producing 4,000 drums of mango puree. Each drum holds 205 litres of puree.

The plant will curb 40 percent of post-harvest fruit waste that farmers used to grapple with in the past.

With value addition, curbed waste and stabilised prices, the value of the mango sector in Makueni is projected to increase immensely from the current KES 3Billion.

Kivutha Kibwana is over working!

2. MAKUENI FRESH milk hits the Market

Makueni has now joined the league of milk producers with the commissioning of Kikima Dairy Plant.

The plant has a capacity to process and pack 300 litres per hour and 6600 litres in a day.

Kikima Dairy Farmers Cooperative Society which owns the facility has already made contact with several supermarkets which will stock MAKUENI FRESH milk, among them Mulleys, Naivas, Ngooni and Jimeli.

Makueni produces 18 Million litres of milk annually against a demand of 340Million litres which guarantees market for MAKUENI FRESH.

    Professor you have exhibited what a true Professor is by being practical and creating solutions. Unlike many other politicians who only speak dream and deliver nothing for their electorates. God bless Makueni

    What excuse do the Governors who jumped ship to Jubilee side citing that they needed to work closely with Government for development? Until Governors understand their role in devolution many counties will remain behind in development as they grovel and beg for handouts.

      Most Governors lack vision and competence, remember some are apolitical and not entrepreneurs

    The rest of the governors are just thieves. Where are they taking their allocations if kibwana can use the same to do such development? The corrupt who buy non-casinogenic wheelbarrows are strategically placed to veto corruption investigations against themselves. Rotten country of wakora versus wakora trumpling on the poor citizens.

    Now this is good. I’m Jubilee but I like Kivutha and his foresightedness. Not like others shouting Resist on empty heads. Now we need to see canned Ramogi fish/tuna, Mulembe fresh and Kilifi puree not secession nonsense. You can’t secede on empty heads & empty pockets
