Plan to lift ban on GMOs not in the interest of Kenyans

While I was browsing Kenyan news websites a few days ago, like I usually do, I was dismayed to come across articles referencing an announcement by Deputy President William Ruto that the Kenya government will be lifting the ban on Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) within the next few weeks.

It is my understanding that, at least theoretically, every government exists to serve its people, and so I scoured the articles and watched the news station’s YouTube clips, trying to find information on a day or an occasion when the people of Kenya had stated or indicated that they wanted their government to lift the ban. I found nothing.
