[Eric Lungai/Standard]Construction of a granite factory at Ebuyangu in Luanda Sub-county of Vihiga County will begin next month. Addressing the 5th Devolution Conference in Kakamega, Vihiga Governor Wilbur Ottichilo (pictured) said it would cost Sh50 million to put up the factory. Recently, Deputy President William Ruto said Sh50 million had been set aside for the construction of the granite factory in the 2018-2019 financial year. Vihiga County has enough granite stones that can cater for the building needs of the country without getting exploited,” said Ruto. Ottichilo further said construction of a Sh10 million fish hatchery was ongoing at Mwitoko Fish Farm in Luanda Sub County.
