    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to support this Motion. This Motion is very critical for this nation. As we are all aware, Kenya is an agricultural country. Our GDP in terms of economic activities when you compare with the manufacturing sector, is the leading one. The problem we have here is that the Government has not shown any interest in supporting the farmer. Setting up a factory for fertilizer is something strategic for this nation. It is something that we, as a nation, have no option, but to do it. If you look at all the major industrialized countries like China, Malaysia and America, their main concern is to make sure that their people have enough food. Unless we are careful, food riots will take place here if the general population is not able to feed itself. I believe the Government will take this Motion seriously. I thank the Mover of this Motion for actually finding it fit to bring this Motion for debate. The reason why I support this Motion is that if the factory is set up, obviously, we will have better yields in maize, banana, onions, tomato and other crops. I remember two years back, the Kenya Tea Development Authority (KTDA) was not able to bring fertilizer to this country for the simple reason that they did not have money as the world market price for fertilizers at that time was beyond what ordinary"
