"content": " Hon. Speaker, I also rise to applaud the Speech by His Excellency the President during his State of the Nation Address, which focused on key issues that are affecting Kenyans. Listening to the President gave me hope and I believe that if Kenyans listened to him, he sowed seeds of hope in them. I know that most Kenyans could be undergoing some difficult moments because of the various issues that are affecting them like the SHA. Nonetheless, what the President said in his Speech was very promising. He focused on the issues that we see happening and taking root in our country. I know that Kenya is very rich in agricultural production. Kenya is very rich in terms of labour. The President focused on the revival of agricultural production. I come from western Kenya and we have been suffering a lot. Most of the people in western Kenya are very poor. The poverty arises from the fact that most of us focus on production of maize, which is not selling well, and production of sugarcane, whose prices had gone as low as Ksh2,800 per tonne because most factories had collapsed. When the President visited the Western region which is"

"content": "rich in production of cane, he gave us hope by telling us that there is a possibility of reviving those factories. After he became President, he revived 17 factories. He has signed the Sugar Act into law. The Constitution of Kenya 2010 killed the Sugar Act leading to a lot of confusion in the sugar production. Most farmers did not have any control and many factories went down. Additionally, because of the collapse of the Sugar Act, there was a massive importion of sugar into the country causing most farmers to suffer, particularly in western Kenya. Currently, I can assure our people in western Kenya that the future is very good. The price has now risen from Ksh2,800 per tonne to Ksh5,000, which is promising for us Kenyans. I recall that during my schooling days, we relied on selling milk to the Kenya Cooperative Creameries (KCC), but this collapsed in the 1990s. I want to assure Kenyans and the people who produce milk, particularly in western Kenya, that the President’s focus on the revival of the new KCC as highlighted in his Speech is giving us hope. For example, in Malava, the county government had put up a factory for milk production, but we were getting some headwinds. With the revival of KCC and the kind of massive investment being made, we are assured of the delivery of coolers in the country, including to our plant in Malava. This will ensure that the milk we produce is absorbed and Kenyans, including those in Malava, will lead a better life. We know that some regions in this country have become rich because of one commodity called coffee. Most of us in western Kenya have been focusing heavily on maize and sugar production, yet we have remained poor and wondered why. We learned that coffee is another good cash crop that can do well in western Kenya, and through the President’s efforts, much is happening on the ground. Most of the farmers are happy to take up production of coffee, and with this positive attitude, I believe this country will move to richness, much like other countries that have become rich. Finally, I appeal to Kenyans who seem to be so hopeless with Taifa Care: our business is to register. I can give an example to Kenyans and the people of Malava. There is a particular mother to a friend of mine named Livingstone Muhati in South Kabras who had registered for SHA. When the mother went to the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH) in Eldoret, she incurred a bill of Ksh491,000. This was settled by SHA. So, my people of Malava, let us register, as this plea is all over, and we will live a better life. We will stop selling our land, cows and property because of ailments."
