Former Kenya Cooperative Creameries employees have threatened a protest march to State House seeking President William Ruto's intervention over their unpaid terminal and Maziwa Sacco dues amounting to more than Sh200 million said to have piled for over three decades.

They claim the government's delay to clear their dues has taken a toll on their mental health. Speaking to journalists in Eldoret yesterday, Raphael Akola Nambisia, former vice chairman of KCC workers, expressed their frustration, anger and bitterness over the manner the government is handling the matter.
