    "content": "Hon. Speaker, we have some Kshs10 billion that has been set aside for the Strategic Grain Reserves. However, we have heard of scandals where maize is bought from the wrong people. Can we ensure that we start with the farmers first? Let the Strategic Grain Reserve deal directly with Kenyan farmers without using brokers so that, that money can go into people’s pockets during this period when things are getting tough economically. So, we are hoping that we are not going to hear of stories like we have heard before. There will be more monitoring of how that money is going to be used and that farmers will sell their maize at a good price so that they can feed their families. They also need to plough that money back to the farms so that they can get more food going forward."
