    "content": "Hon. Speaker, maize is a staple food in Kenya. It is produced in most parts of the country. However, an alarming spread of the devastating maize disease in parts of Narok, Bomet, Nandi, Kericho and Kipkelion threatens to affect maize production in those areas and negatively impact on the livelihood of the people in the region as well as on food security in the country at large. I would like the Chairperson to inquire into and report on the following:- (i) steps taken by the Government to arrest the spread of the disease; (ii) any measures that the Government has put in place to sensitize and equip farmers with the requisite skills to fight the disease; and, (iii) assistance or compensation offered to the affected farmers, who have lost their crops to the disease over a couple of years."
