Artisans operating in Rwabayanga centre of Huye District are expected to relocate to Sovu centre as Huye plans to construct a District handcraft zone in Sovu.
The artisans want to relocate their activities to avoid losses that could result in changing the work place.
They said that a number of clients may diminish because Sovu Centre is far from Huye town.
Some business people in Rwabayanga were renovating their houses targeting an increase of relocation fees while the District considers the renovation as illegal adding that they should obey guidelines.
Rwabayanga is a small centre located in Huye District. It is known as a hub for handcrafts activities.
It was noted that Huye District has many people engaged in handcraft work thus grouping them in one centre could boost the Socio-economic development of the District.
