    "content": "Recently, the Minister for Co-operative Development and Marketing paid a visit to farmers in Sotik. The import of this Motion then became very clear; the presentations that were made by the farmers to the Minister were very categorical. They indicated that they sold their cows and all their assets, and in their view, they did not owe the Government a single cent, and that this is their property. I am sure the other farmers have also spent a lot and ensured that the old KCC, all its plant and assets across the country were paid for. It is very clear that what the Government is trying to do is absolutely illegal. It is not warranted! The farmers do not deserve to be taken for granted. The kind of money that the Government injected to revive the New KCC does not warrant it making it its asset, and therefore, making decisions like the one of privatizing it. So, I want to say, as I support this Motion, that New KCC belongs to farmers. I want to reiterate that farmers do not want their assets to be taken to the stock exchange; we know who owns the stock exchange. Once the shares are floated at the stock exchange, the farmer will be completely forgotten."
