KMTC Sigowet Campus
Background Information
KMTC Sigowet Campus was started in the year 2014, when the KMTC Board of Directors supported the initiative of the then area Member of Parliament. The community purchased 5.2 acres of land and in 2016, construction of two classrooms and an ablution block, funded by the Soin/Sigowet Constituency Fund was started.
