"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I never said that. I said in relative terms what each sector contributes to the economy and what we require the Government to pay focus on. Kenya is known to have huge mineral deposits, but because over the period inadequate attention has been paid to it, it is not a major a factor in our GDP. Now that we have mining of base titanium in Kwale County, the hon. Senator should just pick up the budget document, look through and see whether the income from it is factored in our budget. It is not, and yet that is the biggest mining consortium in Kenya. Fluorspar Mining Company collapsed and Magadi Soda Company is nowhere. If you are a dairy farmer like I have been, your cow that gives the best quantum of milk, you even isolate it and feed it on its own to continue giving you more milk. That is income. But here we are taking the price cow that gives us the best milk and mixing it with tick-infested cows that give us nothing. We then aggregate and say that this is our economy. This is lopsided logic"
