Statehouse has released the joint communique between Uganda despot Yoweri Museveni and our legally elected president Uhuru, this is meant to cool tempers on the raging controversial Sugar Milk deal.
President Uhuru told the nation on live TV that he had agreed to Kenya importing sugar from Uganda while on 12th Aug, Foreign Affairs minister ambassador Amina Mohameed categorically stated there was no deal. Today, without batting an eyelid, Industrialisation minister Adan Mohammed vindicated Raila Odinga and confirmed yes there is a deal, and regardless of what the Kenya farmer wants, the deal will go ahead! Both CS Amina and CS Adan together with Itumbi work for one boss- the Presidency!.
Now Itumbi has published the so called joint communique that doesn’t mention any trade deal Sugar and Dairy products.
Meanwhile it appears that after Jubilee regime being caught out on an opaque, private trade deal that spells doom for sugar farming peasants, an embarrassed Jubilee Administration has predictably come out strongly flying out delegations to key regions to propagate lies about the pact. (Where does all this money come from? Story for another day)
Remember before Raila said anything about the sugar trade no one flew anywhere. After he spoke, Jubilee first attempted to summon Western MPs to state house but public pressure forced some of the MPs to think twice. That attempt to influence MPs flopped!
Before that, the president lost his cool and even publicly and angrily purported to rebuke Raila Odinga for asking for transparency.
It then became a free for all with media organizing useless talk shows on mass media to try and save the presidency from embarrassment. An amorphous group calling itself “Western Parliamentary Caucus” last seen escorting Uhuruto on an imagined Mumias rescue mission, suddenly resurfaced with a poorly crafted statement also purporting to speak on behalf of farmers but reality is they started this problem with that first state house visit in June 2015.
When Raila stuck to his guns and insisted that farmers were being shagged in a batter trade between two unscrupulous businessmen, and issued a fact laden statement that poured cold water on the trade pact, the more than a dozen choppers flew from Wilson Airport with one sole mission. To discredit Raila Odinga and to white wash the sour sugar tale from Uganda
