    "content": "My apologies, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir; I thought it was the distinguished Senator for Uasin Gishu County in the Chair. I have no intention of changing your gender. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, 75 per cent of the Kenyan workforce is in the agriculture sector. However, if you look at this sector, sugarcane farming and sugar production is dead; maize farming is dead; tea farming is in problems; coffee farming is dead and rice farming is in trouble. If you go to Naivasha, flower firms are closing down; so, where is this growth? Where are the jobs coming from? We are having serious difficulties that we need to address as a nation. I agree with the President that we need to work together. We need to have a situation where unity of purpose in the country is embraced by all of us if we have to address our problems. I expected the President to mention, through the BBI, the desire to address constitutional changes in this country. He has spoken many times to the issue of inclusivity and accommodating those who have not been able to capture State power The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
