    "content": "must be owned by the farmers and that percentage must be determined in some way for purposes of cushioning them from exploitation. Once that is agreed in terms of fairness to the factories and the communities where these factories are, then we can now say that we have a sugar industry that can start from a strong competitive foothold. However, as recommended here with 2009 figures which were approved by the Cabinet in the year 2010, which have no meaning as of now, you are asking Parliament to approve something that is still unworkable. That is why I supported that amendment; that further consultation is necessary and we need some ingenuity in recommending the privatisation of all these companies granted that they were acquired differently. They have current different conditions as they operate .When you know as I do how these factories have been exploited, we even need legislation to protect these factories from some of the practices that have been there before. Honestly, people from western Kenya and that is the mistake that I made, if you continue to import exports then we know that you are clearly discriminating against western and Nyanza parts of Kenya. Mr. Kaguthi went and said Dalmas Otieno was trying to mobilise MPs from western Kenya to rebel against the Government and I was sacked promptly at one o’clock within three days."
