    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a very serious case. No wonder sugar is almost now very rare in the supermarket shelves and if you get it, some of it comes from foreign lands; yet, there are many industries that were processing sugar, Chemelil being one of them. The last time Chemelil was the envy of everyone was when the Managing Director (MD) was Aaron Tuikong. We are witnessing this mess after they were hauled out of office. Mr. Ondieki has done the right thing to bring this Petition so that the Senate in its wisdom can interrogate it. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Ksh265million is not a small amount of money. This must be recovered from whoever has taken it to the extent that now we have made the poor farmers poorer by borrowing further or refusing to pay them their Ksh180 million owed from 2014.These people are supposed to send their kids to school, pay fees, and continue with their farming. Who does not know how Chemelil region is? No wonder, I recently passed there and there is poor farming activity going on. Little do we know that it is as a result of this mess in the factory. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there was a very good academy in that company that was doing quite well but it has nowadays disappeared from the map. It is indeed right that this must be investigated and people who are in authority should carry their cross."
