Former Uasin Gishu gubernatorial aspirant Zedekiah Bundotich alias Buzeki has faulted North Rift local leaders for failing to legislate on critical matters affecting farmers in the region.
Speaking during an interview at vernacular Radio station Kass FM's morning show on Tuesday, Buzeki claimed legislators in the region overlooks agriculture sector by engaging in political wars for self-gain.
“Leaders should formulate laws to alleviate agricultural activities in the region, politics will not positively materialize to the locals,” Buzeki said.
He urged Senators to perform their constitutional roles to oversight development projects and criticizing governors in a positive way.
"Our leaders especially legislators should focus on policy-making to solve the issues ailing our people. Politicising issues without providing solutions is not a characteristic of leadership," noted Buzeki.
The billionaire businessman however asked the national government to heed to farmers' demands on the agricultural sector by streamlining the National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB) administrative system and elimination of corrupt personnel to foster the sector in the region.
“Government should find long-lasting solutions to prolonged problems wrecking NCPB. Farmers should be supported by providing them with affordable farm inputs and market environment to improve their standards,” Buzeki insisted.
