A section of sugar cane farmers in Migori County have appealed to the national government to pay them their dues owed by South Nyanza Sugar Company (Sony).

Addressing the press on Thursday at Awendo, the farmers led by Jeremiah Okoth Omboko said they have not been paid for cane delivered to the miller for more than six months and they will not manage to take their children to school in January.
