"content": " Hon. Chairman, I am just passionate on this matter. I am very happy. Maybe I look like I am crying, but they are tears of joy. Right now, farmers in Homa Bay grow their cotton and transport it to a private ginnery in Salowa in Baringo. That is where the cotton can be ginned. Some of them take the cotton to Kitui or Nairobi. By the time the cotton reaches there, it would have passed through too many middlemen hence the value falls. So, I am very passionate on this matter and really thank the Budget and Appropriations Committee for considering the Homa Bay Ginnery in addition to the Luanda Ginnery. That is how we are going to industrialise and put money in the pockets of our people. That is the mission of President Uhuru Kenyatta and the reason for the “handshake”; putting money in people’s pockets. This is very important. Thank you, Hon. Chairman."
