Kericho Residents Burn Tea Picking Machines

I support this move. Kama sio hivo maumbwa warudi kwao England wakaoteshe majani chai kwao.

Punda zimechoka

Technology: shape up or shape out, it’s just a matter of time before they are all redundant,they just postponed the inevitable. To be competitive… That’s what processors do … Mechanize

Company wants to save on labor force. That machine can do a job that was previously done by a whole village

Wachome zote.

The only way Kenya benefits from these beberu companies is through the employment of thousands as teapickers.

These plantations transfer the tea to their mother companies to be sold at a premium and then report a loss so tax to KRA ni kidogo sana. Kenya just loses.

Wachomwe hata hiyo majani.

Next Samburu, Turkana na Pokot washikane wachukie NRT.

Kenya for Kenyans…

So as farmer, instead of buying a water pump to irrigate my crops, I hire people to go to the river, draw water and carry the same and water the crops? Next we should do away with all manner of tractors, lorries, combine harvesters, computers, mobile phones and any other technology that makes work easier and efficient. We simply go back to the 16th century. This is now bonoboism reaching dangerous levels

I concur. These white porks play rough when it comes to milking Kenya.

They export Tea as raw material (close to free of charge) to their Subsidiary companies in UK and Europe, repackage and sell at premium prices( See Lipton Brand on average is Kes2k per Kg).

The lease they are holding, they pay only stamp duty on renew and 280/= per acre per annum as Land rates.

Imagine!! Kes 280/= per acre per annum!

Boss, pris just stop there. Kama hauelewi kitu you don’t have to comment.

Watu si wajinga…

Value addition should be done in the local factories not In Europe

So you can’t do what you wish with your business in this capitalist country? Imagine watu wa koroga wakikubomolea nyumba sababu umeleta ile concrete mixer machine.

The only constant thing in life is change.

Can a bleck man from Africa lease farmland in England for 499 or 999 years? Warudi kwao mabwa

So called Cash Crops are Modern Day Slavery tactics

Let’s say the lease is cancelled and the land somehow miraculously handed over to the community. Will those vandals afford to buy it back, or rather will they afford to manage the estates by themselves. All I see here is this

Mangufuli really tried to deal with these extortionists

The next rivatex loading

Magu was smart upstairs.

He penalized a Canadian mining company for tax evasion. Recovered millions of USD for Tanzanians

The white owned tea companies make billions in tea farming.They should put 50% of plantation on hand picking and rest on machinery to at least provide employment.They’ll still make profits

nashangaa ruto atasemaje

The said machine are injuring tea pickers leaving them with spinal injuries / crashed libidos.

Endless pain of operating tea-plucking machines | Nation

Mpaka supervisors wanamumunya bibi za injured workers.

One machine even beheaded a 9 year old boy

Zichomwe zote
