Value addition is a huge opportunity for industrial growth. 97.3% of our tea is exported in bulk - only 2.7% is valued added. If we are to add value to our tea, we would earn at least 500% of the value of the raw exports - KAM CEO @wakiaga_phyllis

School also spent sh3M on repairs.
Yet, school has sh9M surplus in 2019. Add sh16M saved in previous years and we closed year with sh25M.
Will spend sh23M to build new 300-bed dorm - contractor on site
Sh2M to sink new borehole - waiting NEMA approval

Moral of the story?
