    "content": "it, top dress, weed, or what to do with your berries if there is frost and you do not know when to spray. This is what they should do. I am happy that you have incorporated this. As my brother from West Pokot County walks in, West Pokot by the way is now the new frontier for coffee growing. I want the Senate Majority Leader to join this House in condemning CS, Hon. Munya for taking all the money from the World Bank and forgetting that West Pokot, Trans Nzoia, Bungoma, Kisii, Nyamira, Kakamega, and Vihiga counties grow coffee. He takes the money to one region. When we asked him, he arrogantly said I will give them cotton money. Cotton is not the alternative to coffee. Madam Temporary Speaker, if you go to West Pokot, you cannot tell a farmer do not grow coffee, please grow cotton. They are growing what is suitable for the climate. We want to see that any money whether it is from the taxpayer of donor to benefit all Kenyans regardless of where they come from and where authority for the time being resides. This is so that Kenyans can grow together and be happy as one. One big happy family of Kenyan farmers called Kenyans. Sen. Ndwiga, I salute you because this has been a calling for you. Continue leading this country in the revival of coffee. Finally, I encourage you to set up a Parliamentary caucus on coffee with voluntary members of all of us who come from the frontier where coffee is growing. This is so that we can review day today existing legislation, bring new legislation, and even lobby donors for supporting this programme so that our people move away from poverty and start living more decent lives than they currently do. I support the Bill."
