    "content": "Importers of Sugar have been licensed. Who has licensed them? It is the Government. The Government has given them licences. Even the most recent ones, which we have been making noise about - which is importation of sugar from Uganda - have been licensed by the Government. We all know that Uganda does not produce enough sugar for itself. When we are told that we are importing sugar from Uganda, it is unbelievable. Nobody can believe this. It is just intended to help a few businessmen and those barons whom we are talking about. They are people who are benefitting doing illegal business and are being licensed to bring sugar into this country. Unfortunately, even the Government was defending importation of sugar from Uganda. This is our Government. I do not support it many times but it is our Government. They have to consider the people of Kenya and our farmers, who are the people we represent here. I want to appeal to the Governments to reconsider its decision on this."
