I do support GMO foods. Having said that,the GMO food should be clearly labelled 'like they do it for BAT products' so that consumers can make a choice either based on the right information, misinformation or prejudice.

GMO debate is fueled by interests. Currently our knowledge in genetic engineering is without a doubt specific on what gene to be manipulated and its outcome.
Most of the people shouting the loudest may not have an idea what is the difference between DNA and GENE or even their meaning.

IMHO the debate is misplaced and fuelled by ignorance. Its very saddening to see the political class arguing against a cheap alternative for the starving poor. Having said that the govt should be careful not to allow foods that have not been adequately tested for human consumption.

GMO's ain't goood and I don't know whey people are advocating for it.

@Kiterunner. Leave alone food that hasn't been tested for human consumption, it should outlaw the importation and sale of anything that's GMO.

Do some research and educate yourselfs.

NTV had this story and my first thoughts were why do we need GMO food in the first place.

Now thats in TURKANA!!!! which of late we have been seeing pictures of famine and Kenyans starving which has brought about the GMO debate.

It interesting to note that its 750 acres which cost approximately 3.5 million (yes 3.5 million) from FAO and not our own government. We definatly need to re-examine our priorities.
