"Hawa waheshimiwa nataka tafadhali niwahakikishieni tafadhali pitisheni budget haraka hawa wakulima wanahitaji stima," he said
The president also emphasized that in the next financial year, the main focus will be on building roads, electricity connectivity, and water.
"Tayari tumeweka hio mpango kwa budget yetu," he said
