Prices of cahrcoal have reached an all time alrming high in Kericho town.One Big bag now costs between nine hundred and one thousand kenyan shillings while the small bags go for half the price.
When we asked the charcoal dealers in the town they answered that the rise is due to the bad weather and the polices'tight security in the Mau forest.It has been reported that the police has been very harsh at charcoal burners in the forest . They are reported to have interrupted the burning of charcoal in the forest which has led to a servere shortage of charcoal in the town and it's environs.
Kericho has been experiencing heavy rains recently.
