    "content": "Finally, if they do not have the competencies such as knowledge, skills and attitudes that facilitate the adjudication of what they have been trained on, we end up not delivering according to the expectations. We have farmer training colleges across the country. These institutions are not properly funded by the county or the national Government. They are the institutions that are supposed to train these people at the local level, and carry out extension services and trading platforms for farmers. If we are not going to fund those places where they are going to be trained properly, it is going to have a negative impact on the agricultural sector. What do people look for when seeking to be recruited as extension officers? We find people who have failed to get opportunities in other fields and are not trained in any sphere of agriculture being recruited to suit political, clan and regional interests. It must be very clear that extension officers in the line of agriculture must be competent, qualified and able to deliver in that kind of operation. Mr. Temporary Speaker, I thank you for this opportunity. Sen. Tabitha Mutinda you have been congratulated by my senior youth leader, know that your stakes are high. Thank you."
