He accused the governor of sidelining Malava in matters development and called for a quick response as schools were warming up to close for the long holidays tis end month.
Sikolia said many county projects in the sub-county from Dairy to elevating Malava to become a municipality had remained a mirage of empty promises.
Early last week the governor announced that the county bursary funds monies had been received and he will be launching the disbursement in West Kabras as one way of appreciating their unwavering support during the last general election, but he is yet to do so.
The Mukhonje location chief Stellah Mufoya warned those sex pests on the sprawl, defiling young learners to stop the vice immediately as investigations has been launched to nab the culprits.
We have individuals here who are waylaying our girls from both school on their way to school going home and they defile and impregnate them and later takes them to carry out abortion, we will find and apprehend you, we cannot let you destroy our learners” she warned.
