Wainunu farmers crying for help from Govt to fix farm roads

Wainunu farmers crying for help from Govt to fix farm roads

Farmers in Wainunu are crying for help and calling on the Goverment of the day to assist in fixing their farm roads as they had been previously requesting and pleading for years.

William Brown, a farmer in Wainunu, expressed his concerns and frustrations in a video shared widely on social media, saying that their plea has been falling on deaf ears for so many years.

He has spoken to the community in Wainunu to help out in whatever they can and help farmers amplify their voices to get their farm roads fixed.

Brown says they desperately need help and hopes his video will reach government officials so they can help the plight of the farmers.

He says it hurts them to see the government developing infrastructure in other areas around the country but never respond to people's pleas in the community.

We have contacted the Ministry of Infrastructure and the Ministry of Waterways and Agriculture. They are yet to respond. Stay with us for developments.
