Government to honour Chetambe freedom fighters with monument

The government will construct a monument at Chetambe Fort in Webuye East, Bungoma County, to honour local heroes who were killed by colonial forces while resisting British rule. Speaking during the annual Tachoni Cultural Festival held at Masinde Muliro University grounds, National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula said the monument will be built on a 20-acre parcel of land and will serve as a historical and cultural tourism site for the community.
