"content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. First, I join my colleagues in supporting this Bill by Hon. Mary Emaase. Cotton is a very important crop. We used to have cotton in Meru. I say we used to because we used to have Meru Ginnery at Gaitu. It was doing very well. Along the way, in the 1980s and 1990s, it started falling apart. The ginnery died a slow death. It is time we revived the cotton industry. There is a famous Indian leader by the name of Mahatma Gandhi. During his agitation for India’s self-rule, he led a revolution and said that they will not wear anything imported from overseas. They did a march and burned all the clothes they were wearing. They put on shukas so that they could revive the cotton industry in India."
