    "content": " Thank you very much. There is something that we have been battling with every time we meet industry stakeholders and farmers. You know very well in our region there are over 200,000 farmers. The Government is planning to lease those factories without engaging the farmers. Even if you are a doctor and you know everything to be done to a patient, somehow, you have to ask how the patient feels. Farmers have not been seriously involved in those processes. The same cartels who want to enjoy monopoly in our region and continue to mistreat our people are the ones championing this process. So, I want to ask the Chairman to have specific timelines and engage people who are involved in this process to ensure that the sugar industry is revived. If today we revived the five industries that we have just talked about here, what would stop them from employing more than 5,000 Kenyans in a month? It is about serious commitment.
