• 13 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: culture of our communities who believe that they concentrate on their own farms and they need to do their own things, through sensitisation and Government support, all the farmers will come together and we can have groups which will improve their production.

If we have no funds, we can even charge such an amount. That can be used to employ experts who can save lives at Likoni Ferry. It is high time as a country we said the truth. We need to get a report.
