Folks,
Yes People, its time to get down to work. Ministries are suppose to identify programs that generate income to survice itself, as well as drips down to the grassroots. Kudos Hon. Ruto.
In my opinion, Kajwang’s action to provide Religious Work Permit is in order as is the case with Globalization Faith Based structures known as Religious Workers Permit.
In response to Hon. Kajwang’s action critics, Religion is regarded a matter of spiritualism and transformational reconstruction of faith driven by instinct of love and hope to salvage remnants into Gods Kingdom – so its work therefore is part of a larger Community Reform and Reconciliation – a case of dire need in Kenya today, i.e. the Faith Based or Religious Workers are like NGOs (the non-governmental organizations). Incase Policy provision of same is not enacted in Kenyan Constitution, then its just about time. I therefore do not see anything warranting commotion that rented the air lately.
Good Day People!!!!!

NEWS ON AGRICULTURE MINISTRY
The Agriculture ministry has drawn rules to govern the importation of wheat under the Mutual Tariff Concessions for the Common Market of East and Southern Africa (COMESA).
In a Kenya Gazette notice published last Friday, Agriculture minister William Ruto drew out rules meant to bring sanity in the market.
In the new rules, the auction right to import wheat under the COMESA tariff concession will be open to all bidders and participation shall be through the catalogue process.
Bidders will be required to purchase the catalogue at Sh200,000 which will be paid at the ministry’s headquarters. The deposit will paid in banker’s cheque and addressed to the Agriculture Permanent Secretary.
“The rights to import shall be sold in lots of one thousand tonnes each,” the rules state. A successful bidder shall be required to pay the the bid price within 14 days.
