As the ban on plastic bags come into force, Kitui Governor Charity Ngilu has said her government will expand production and distribution of sisal kyondos in the country to increase revenue especially for women.

Ngilu said her government will empower women's self-help groups in the rural villages to engage in handwoven kiondo baskets to improve their livelihoods.
