"content": "Banks have their own stringent rules for assessing different customers. In that case, most of these customers told they had a financing issue. This is because they did not have an idea of how much it would cost them. Secondly, the other challenge is because of problems that have been experienced all over the world by the Russia-Ukraine War. There is scarcity of grains in the world. It has not been easy to get the known Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) maize which I asked them to bring into the country. Those are the main challenges that we found ourselves in. As I finish, it behooves all of us, to understand the importance being food secure as a country. The responsibility of ensuring there is food for everyone in this country is our duty as Kenyan people. Moreover, it is also the greatest responsibility of the elected leaders. This is because the people that elect and vote for you trust you more than anyone else. If you take the responsibility of sensitizing farmers on why we need to get back to our farms and take advantage of Government interventions that are being made to ensure we are food secure then, we shall overcome this problem."
