We request that this issue must be factored. I am happy for Busia and Bungoma counties, where I saw that they have allocated some money to buy subsidised fertilizer for some of the farmers in those regions. I hope the counties of Nandi, Uasin Gishu, Elgeyo Marakwet and Trans Nzoia counties will follow the cue in their county governments and allocate money to ensure that we produce food."}
