The 2-day County Agricultural,
Livestock exhibition and trade fair has come to a fulfilling close today; 12th
of June, at the Maasai Rural Training Centre (MRTC).

Many stakeholders from the county
participated, to display their contribution towards the growth of the County
and especially in the agricultural sector.
Speaking as he officially opened
the trade fair, the Governor H.E Dr.David Nkedianye called on the wananchi to learn as much as possible
during the two days.

“This is a good opportunity for
the people to learn new things and opportunities there are, in this field of
agriculture…” he said.
It was a successful event, which
ended with some good news coming from Hon Jonah Orumoi, County Executive Member
for Agriculture. The tannery at the MRTC that has been under construction since
2011 will be operational by end of the year. This will create jobs for many
people therefore improving their living standards.
