"content": "The Cabinet Secretary (CS) has contravened five Articles of our Constitution. Be it is parastatal or national, the buck of the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock stops with the CS and no one else. The Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock is a very vital Ministry. In 2022, this docket produced Ksh2.5 trillion to our national Gross Domestic Product (GDP) which translates to 21 per cent. Therefore, anybody messing up with agriculture and livestock, is messing up with food security, employment, national productivity and the health of Kenyans as a whole. If these are messed up, productivity of this country would be messed as well. Governance is also a key pillar to all the three Arms of Government, and if somebody is found culpable, we cannot mince our words. And as Hon. Mbadi says, if you love your CS, let us vote so that the Committee can take up this matter and carry out proper investigations. If your argument is that those media articles and outlets are improper, why defend them now? Let us rise, and vote."
