President Uhuru Kenyatta’s government has promised to construct 57 dams, buy half of its food requirements from small scale farmers and improve forest cover from seven to 10 per cent in a bold food security plan, if re-elected.
The Jubilee team is also promising to put under irrigation at least one million acres in the next five years.
