"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am happy with the answer. However, it is unfortunate that we are dealing with small-scale farmers in Kirinyaga County. The legal documents that I have state that the farmers are advised to seek legal redress elsewhere. These documents are voluminous and they are not known to the farmers. We are dealing with a farmer who is contributing to the economy of this country with horticulture earning Kenya foreign exchange. If the farmers are not being protected by the Government, who else will protect them? So, I am asking the Chairman to fast-track the process so as to know what will happen to the farmers who delivered the French beans before the collapse of the Imperial Bank Limited. Will it be the end of them? Will we rest and claim that since Imperial Bank Limited collapsed, that will be the end? Will we sit and let farmers languish in poverty? That is my concern."
