Seems stealing is our core valueless. How does it feel to live on stolen property. No guilt feeling at all. This would just kill me. Wacha ya wizi ikae. Can't feed my kids with a loot. punda amecheka

Of Govt planting maize to feed people - and thus compete with farmers, or put them out of business is to border on crap. Why not empower existing maize farmers to boost production. Govt should plant something else like cotton to boost industry

Exactly. Why should we be importing sugar from sudan and rice plus oranges from Egypt grown via irrigation by waters of the nile? If they can utilise the nile, we can also utilise our tana and athi rivers. It's not rocket science. The chickens have come home to roost

The chickens have come home to roost Dont know why we are still doing such projects in this time and age - with all the data available at click of a button. If govt grows enough maize to feed its people (they can't do this by the way), then farmers in rift will be out of business. So, if the project succeeds, we are doomed, if it fails we are damned. Fail-Fail situation. Instead they could have employed millions of jobless youths to build irrigation canals even using manual labour like the mwea scheme was done in the 50s and 60s. And then model it along mwea scheme which has been fairly successful - Maize they shouldn't plant -our farmers have been doing fantastic job and no need to fix it if it ain't broken. Think rice, sugar or COTTON.
