"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for protecting me so that you are able to see me and interact with my face as I contribute to this wonderful Motion. As I was saying, the suffering I have gone through for the last 10 years alongside other farmers is so immense that we must put this to an end. As I support this Motion, I look at two things: One, the question which lingers in my mind is why it is only public companies or millers who delay in making payment whereas private-owned millers pay their farmers within seven days. In western Kenya, we have Butali Sugar and West Kenya Millers. Those are two private companies which are able to pay within seven days of delivery. But all public-owned companies take time of almost a year or one-and-a-half years to pay. This is simply because of one reason; which is corruption. There is too much corruption, inconsistency and infidelity among the staff and they have all built this into inefficiency that they are not able to pay."
