"content": "Another important thing to recognise is the cost of living, which is above the roof. Currently, we can talk of maize retailing at Kshs6,000 per a 90-kilogramme bag in Yatta Constituency when in 2017 it was retailing at Kshs2,400. Most of the people are earning less than a dollar in a day. These are key concerns which the Government needs to take into consideration. Another important thing to factor in is the Yatta Dam. This has been a talk for decades. It is very key that we have a dam because many people will get water from it. Also of key importance is the desilting of Yatta Canal which is serving so many people in Yatta. Today in Yatta, we should be exporting crops but we are not because water supply is not guaranteed."
