• 22 Jun 2023 in Senate: Therefore, it is a good recollection to see Sen. Wambua try and get a good coordinated effort to the farmers who produce this very nutritious crop and one of our favorite meals to date. It is not only here in Kenya but when you travel across the globe, especially in the South East Asia, this is a very popular dish. It is quite unfortunate that we have left farmers in Kenya for all those years to the vagaries of the market. They determine for themselves what value to be added, how to sell it, regulate its sale and how to ... view

• 22 Jun 2023 in Senate: passed down and shared equally amongst the two or three sons that we have there and everybody has an acre or less. However, the fact that it does not matter how small your farm is, there is an aggregation process that brings together the tea. You take your tea to the buying centre, somebody does the job of processing it and the other person transports it to the auction. Eventually, it is sold and the money finds it way back to the farmer. Unfortunately, in many of these other crops such as maize, wheat, sorghum and rice, there is not ... view

We must support such efforts so that the people of Kenya know that indeed, as a Senate, we prioritize every need and every crop. Every Senator ... view

• 22 Jun 2023 in Senate: factories but were not making the roads that it was meant to do. That used to happen previously before we county governments came in. Therefore, we must find a way of ring-fencing these levies that are collected from these farmers so that we develop and ensure, that our farmers in Kitui and all the farmers in Kenya, who shall be participating in the development of this crop have good extension services. They also must have better pest control because the county government will be able to use that levy to send one or two officers to the Kenya Agricultural and ... view

• 22 Jun 2023 in Senate: That is what devolution is all about. It should not only be imagined that it is always the counties that surrender to the national Government functions. It is possible for a county government to excel in a particular practice and trade to the point that the national Government actually selects and says Wajir or Marsabit county has excelled so much in the development of livestock and building of the paddocks and developing the framework in that trade to a point that we want to cede even policy development to them. Whatever they do there in Wajir, Marsabit or Kitui, then ... view
