    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the answer that has been given by my friend, the Senator for Trans Nzoia. In his answer, he says that the factory was to be established in the Financial Year 2013/2014. I believe that is not true because it was to start when I was still the Director of Nyayo Tea Zone. That was in the year 2004. Therefore, the issue of the tea factory is as old as 2004, when it was supposed to have been constructed together with another factory called Kipchobo Tea Factory in Nandi. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this factory is long overdue. It should have started earlier, but there are delaying tactics coming from the Ministry without proper explanation. Once it is completed, we are aware that it will ease the production of tea estates from Kirinyaga, Meru, Nyeri and some parts of Murang’a counties. This is in line with Vision 2030 Industrialization Programme. I asked this question because the people of Kirinyaga are already aware as they had been promised. I was even supposed to be there with the Minister for Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries for the ground breaking ceremony which never took place. This is something that should have started earlier and the reasons given cannot stand. Would the Chairman explain when this project will start off, because the ground breaking was supposed to have been done last year? I was there personally---"
