    "content": "guarantee them payment on regular basis. You cannot tell people from the village to run sugar factories. Even the Government has no capacity. Only private businesspeople can engage in that kind of business. There was a lot of pomp around the donation to Mumias Sugar Company. At that time, the Government said that it was donating Kshs2 billion. Nothing has changed and I know my friend, Hon. Ababu Namwamba, knows that. The people who said they were coming to help you and our people did so because they wanted to play politics. Those are roadside declarations. Yesterday, I heard the Deputy President say that a certain contractor should go to a particular road tomorrow. The contractor must begin construction within three days and yet the project is not catered for in the Budget. That is as ridiculous as what they did in Mumias. The road which must have tarmac in three days is not in our current Budget. I ask the Government to admit and recognise that the livelihood of our people depends on farming. Please let us do it right. I support the Motion."
