When we challenge county government, we hate no one and we have no enemy. In politics there are no permanent friends or enemies. Our main concern is how our money is spend. Its our democratic right for us to ask and we have no apology. All we want is real development. A prudent leader should be keen to practice proven economic guidelines. Development is the progressive growth in production and productivity with factors that bring about:- 1. Economic transformation (from subsistence to commercial) 2. Cultural changes (from retrogressive to progressive) 3. Governance improvements (obedience to rule of law and attention to public good) 4. Educational reforms ( productive training of population) Developing a community begins from a) Adequate Food Production this ensures good nutrition on consumption and surplus is sold for money at the market b) With surplus money a community can a. Educate a child b. Save for investment c) An educated child can Improve his/her family from farming Maize, Beans, Cassava to high value crops such as Export Mangoes, Export Papaws, Oranges, Fresh Produce(French beans, snow peas, sugar snaps, okra, egg plant), Grapes ( All these grow perfect in Machakos) d) A high yielding family can now a. purchase a tractor, pick up, track other machineries for accessing markets and value addition b.
