National Super Alliance (Nasa) presidential flag bearer, Raila Odinga, has criticised the government over the importation of maize in the country and subsidising its price.
Speaking in Kisii county, Wednesday during a Nasa rally, Raila said Jubilee government was lying to Kenyans about the reduced priced of ‘Ugali’. He noted that they were giving with hand and taking it away with the other hand.
“The other day they increased the price of petrol by Sh1 and 90 cents as you read in the newspaper. That price of flour that has been reduced will be paid in the increased cost of petroleum,” said Raila.
“You are being lied to that the price has been reduced yet on this other side; you will be expected to pay more,” the Opposition chief noted.
The branded GOK flour is now in the market and are retailing at Sh90.
