• 22 Nov 2023 in Senate: We have had various attempts to revive the agricultural sector through coffee, milk, tea, sugar and even cotton. I am proud to state that even before the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries led by Sen. (Dr.) Murango, an astute farmer, brought this Bill, we have managed to bring before this House various Bills that will ensure that we address this issue that has continued to oppress farmers for the last couple of decades. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the SAPs was an American or Western concept of trying to dominate African economies by trying to dictate mechanisms that were ... view
