"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I want to congratulate the Cabinet Secretary in his role. We understand when this macadamia ban was imposed, Hon. Mutahi Kagwe was not the Cabinet Secretary then. I want to urge him, please, do not defend this ban. We have information that some cartels infiltrated the Ministry to have this ban effected so that they can be the sole supplier or purchaser of macadamia. Since they understand that the farmers do not have very nice storage facilities, they will sell to them at a throwaway price. So, Bw . Cabinet Secretary, this is my question, because you have said you cannot announce it here today. I remind you that if you treat Kenyans abnormally, they will treat you abnormally. I urge you to give us a timeline, when you are going to consult with Kenyans. Just lift this ban with the citation that it never went through public participation, so that farmers can sell their macadamia wherever they want to sell. What timelines are you going to consult the farmers, so that you can remove this ban?"
