Tuyobei Bridge a Game Changer for Sugarcane Farmers in Transmara._*

Sugarcane farmers in Mogondo Ward, Narok County, are set to benefit from the long-awaited completion of the Tuyobei Bridge — a key infrastructure project that promises to ease transport challenges that have plagued the region for years.

Thanks to the interventions of Mogondo Ward Member of County Assembly (MCA) and Narok County Assembly Majority Whip, Hon. Kipsang Mibei, the bridge will significantly improve connectivity between Mogondo and Esoit Sugar Factory, boosting agricultural productivity and market access.

Speaking during a technical assessment of the project, Hon. Kipsang noted that the bridge will address the perennial difficulties faced by farmers in transporting their sugarcane produce, especially during the rainy season.

In addition to the Tuyobei Bridge, several other infrastructure projects are underway in the area, including the construction of Chebara Bridge, the establishment of Ololmasani University, and the upgrading of the Olchobosei–Tuyobei–Esoit Factory road to bitumen standards.

“We thank President Dr. William Ruto for the tremendous transformation we’ve seen in Transmara,” said Kipsang, highlighting the national government’s support in accelerating development in the region.

These ongoing developments are expected to spur economic growth, create employment opportunities, and enhance access to essential services for the residents of Mogondo and its environs.

Remembering Brenda Fassie, the Queen of African Pop whose music still lives on.

Brenda was born in Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦 in 1964, where she was raised by her mother after her father passed away when she was two. At a tender age, she started earning money by singing to tourists, while her mother, a pianist, played alongside. Brenda climbed her way to the top, beginning as the lead singer in a group called “Brenda and The Big Dudes”, and eventually branching off as a solo artist.

Brenda became well known for her “outrageousness” on stage and was sometimes referred to as the “Black Madonna”. Some of her greatest hits include “Vuli Ndlela”, “Black President”, “Nomakanjani?”, “I’m sorry Mama” and more. Most of her albums went on to become multi-platinum sellers in South Africa.

She died in 2004 at the age of 39 after losing consciousness at a hospital in South Africa.

Despite all the controversies surrounding her personal life, Brenda was a trailblazer in the African music industry. She was a musical genius who constantly reinvented herself and always gave fans around the world something special to look forward to. More importantly, she was a revolutionary who lent her voice to important social issues in her country and went on to inspire many people. Her impact on African music is undeniable and her work will continue to impact generations for years to come.
