First Lady Rachel Ruto has called on farmers across the nation to prepare their lands in readiness for the planting season.
She wants farmers to to till their farms before the onset of rains, which she assures are around the corner after holding prayers on drought.
Speaking on Tuesday during the National Prayer Service, at the Nyayo Stadium, Mrs Ruto said that God had heard the nation’s cries regarding the ongoing drought and that the situation was about to change in no time.
“I know that the God that we have prayed to in the city of Nairobi today is the God that has heard our prayers, here and even in the counties,” Ruto said.
“We know that the counties have been affected very much because of this drought, especially the ASAL areas… today we have prayed, we can see the clouds have formed, and we know the rains are coming. Just like the clergy has said, go and prepare your farms because the rains are coming.”
