The CORD Coalition will from this Thursday embark on a massive campaign in the Western, Nyanza and Coast sugar belts to oppose the alleged Kenya – Uganda sugar deal that will see the country import sugar from the neighboring country. The Raila Odinga led opposition says they will tour the said regions to demonstrate they stand in solidarity with sugarcane farmers that it says are poised to be the ultimate losers, should sugar be imported into the country. And as Martin Mwanje reports, Raila has also scoffed at claims by Deputy President William Ruto that he owes Mumias sugar millions of shillings, terming the claims hollow.
