    "content": "I travelled to Japan about a month ago. I had a discussion around our coffee with people who buy our coffee from Kenya. Sadly, they told me that they no longer buy coffee from Kenya and that our coffee was banned for the next three years, since 2020. This is because of impurities traced in our coffee and use of banned pesticides. I even got a list of pesticides banned in Japan but are currently in use in Kenya. They gave me a list of 127 pesticides allowed in Kenya. If we go to the Pest Control Products Board website, you will find over 300 pesticides that are allowed. The difference of those pesticides is what is making our coffee not to get market outside Kenya. We are the source, the conduits, and the problem. Even as we set up the National Cancer Prevention Control Fund, we must come up with complementary approaches to help us win the war against cancer like we did with malaria control and many other diseases that have been our problem and we have come up with a solution. I support this Motion and pray that it is not going to die at that level. How I pray that you give direction on how to actualise the National Cancer Prevention and Control Fund through your honourable Chair. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
