Kenya and Uganda should take the lead in demonstrating real integration. Our countries are joined at the hip and these borders make no sense. Let Kenyans come to Uganda and invest in real business warehousing for the grain trade. On a plus, there is now an mycotoxin removing machine being run by PeLa Commodities in eastern Uganda. So that challenge should not be there for formally traded grain 😊
We cannot have free trade when laws across the regions aren't harmonized! Dictator allows every and anything into his country and you want us to allow it in?
Just erase the borders and solve the problem. One East Africa. How are you calling sugar from Uganda and peanuts from Bugiri ‘illicit’ while celebrating goods from China and other far places?
There is a certain narrative being driven here, that if we trade among ourselves with products manufactured or grown in Africa is toxic, hiyo ndiyo ina fanya watulazimishie GMO's.
There's no narrative. You're just slow. What is being said is that TOXIC GOODS ARE ENDANGERING THE HEALTH OF MANY KENYANS. THESE GOODS ARE BEING SMUGGLED INTO THE COUNTRY. Translation: The problem isn't that we are trading with our neighbours, the problem is that trade carried out in this particular area is fraught with illegality and the import of potentially hazardous goods.
I have watched the whole video but no mention of the guys organizing the trade. no mention of the companies of suspected shops dealing with the goods. really disappointing that we have to see this video but no tangible evidence to prosecute anyone as the video is just like random interview of hear say???
busia and malaba has money circulation but the county government has been a total let down in very many years. these places are just local centres with very high population
Taxation is theft period. We are taxed on EVERYTHING in some cases multiple times. Now KRA wants to squeeze even more money from us by looking into mobile money transactions. With all this money collected, is life better for Kenyans?
It's not difficult to deal with if you put your mind to it. You are the change you want to see in your country. It starts with you and your circle of influence.
I think you should watch cbc market place and prepare your reporting more accurately and openly. we should see u buying the suspected contaminated food items and use accredited certified labs to do your testing. All in all ur idea for a good report is good.
Mtuache tuishi...All Cargo going into the east & central Africa passing through the gateway to the same via trucks from Mombasa and Nairobi even Tanzania pass by Busia and government doesn't give us anything !!!! Magendo mpaka tutapiga
FirstTake samples of items thought to be imported that are in dukas , test and if there is any danger the fukas are warned next time you sell food that is contaminated you will lose your duka.
Poorly done piece. No real journalism here. Just trying to create a narrative against Kenya and Uganda border trading. To think that the Citizen TV management approved of this to air makes me shake my head

Seth, as a fellow journalist...you guyz really made me proud!
Paying taxes in kenya is funding corruption. Every Kenyan must evade taxes.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Exactly
Taxes go to pockets of individuals
WE DON'T NEED SUCH NEWS WE ARE ONE PEOPLE , AFRICA IS ONE .
So we should consume substandard toxic shit because we are one? You need a head transplant.
Hehe..
This comment show of ignorace
Umbwa wewe
Really?it's coming from you marwa?
Seth Olale just grateful of your good job,
very good job mr seth olale
The pain of odongo father is unbearable 💔 😢
Tis is East Africa and all boarders should be open free.
From Busia but I confirm here that Ethanol business is also booming and it's untouchable, controlled by bigwigs in Nairobi

I agree with you wholeheartedly. Tanzania appears to consider itself part of the Southern Africa development vision not Easy Africa.
This report adresses the wrong problem. Why not have completely free trade, like the European Union? These borders are not of our own making anyway.
We cannot have free trade when laws across the regions aren't harmonized! Dictator allows every and anything into his country and you want us to allow it in?
But products have to be tasted for counterfeit or toxins. Its better to grow our food or buy from known farmers.
Just erase the borders and solve the problem. One East Africa. How are you calling sugar from Uganda and peanuts from Bugiri ‘illicit’ while celebrating goods from China and other far places?

Hata ethanol ni homegrown

I ger it....
Very insightful from royal media group
Uganda life is sweet I once visited Kampala , Kisiye stayed for 2days Great Country 😊❤️
Upande ya waResh ama?
Two days in a country does not really justify 'great country' report. You have no clue about the ins and outs of it in just 2 days.
If kenya reduces taxes in certain goods, there would be no magendo.and they would collect more taxes.
Omosh is saving this country from food shortage
A system is corrupt when it is strictly profit-driven, not driven to serve the best interests of its people.
That road is trully horible and inadequate..what a way to introduce kenya to the world.
Good work citizen t.v
We need to replicate this in the North. Magendo acha tu!
Good job Seth.
Jobless gang should be protected at all costs. Even our politicians evade taxes and as if that's not enough go ahead to loot from us. Kudos!
It's the headline for me💥
U can't stop smuggling. Am wondering seeing Ugandan waragi plastics here in kakamega. So a quick one where do u think these products pass
4:06 What the hell is that? A person talking live is classified as deceased.
This is unacceptable those involved in illegal trade should face the law.
As a country and as a people, we are so far much behind in terms of impunity and nothing can really be done now. The damage has already been done
"so far much behind in terms of impunity and nothing can really be done now" There something wrong with this sentence.
Oi. 1I
Taxes in Kenya are only for the formal businesses. For any other trade, it is tough to collect. Corruption too aids in the tax evasion.
Most taxes in Kenya are indirect taxes kama huna habari. So you are paying taxes whether you like it or not, formal or otherwise.
Tukubari na ile wembo wa kitambo "Nchi yetu kweli ni ya ajabu there is nothing new here ..
...
@@Kittygacha_playz indirect we all pay. I'm referring go tbe direct taxes.
@@kahugumuiruri9057 If a business in Kenya does not even have a business license then it is now even worth calling a business. That is just a hobby,
May I ask, does the government test the food produce that legally enters the country?
I encourage that smuggling, the tax system here is punitive.
Tooo much taxes in kenya 🇰🇪 kwanini
KRA and your learders pls sort thos mess and save us over taxation
Kenyans plant your own fruits why import from Uganda and TZ and we have enough rains. Save the seeds plant your own foods
Cost of production in Uganda and Tanzania is far much cheaper than in Kenya
We import from as far as South Africa and Egypt
Good job seth
Sad state, On the flip side, couldn't help notice the fluent Swahili from my fellow Luhyas

You cannot stop smuggling this is here to stay
It's not easy to deal with this boys...
Why are kenyan investigatives soo shallow?🤷🏽♂️
Help them.
Because their leaders are even shallower.
How will this issue be dealt with when we're heading towards a borderless East African Federation?
busia and malaba has money circulation but the county government has been a total let down in very many years. these places are just local centres with very high population
The money belongs to the rich goons in Nairobi that's where they are investing.
Inasikitisha sana mimi nilipoteza Mjomba wangu na hadi leo mambo ilishia chini ya maji ina sikitisha sana .
Greed is destroying lives..
🤣🤣🤣 I stand with jobless gang ...kenya government offers no employment
So do you guys mean everything coming from Uganda is bad... Ama mnamaanisha nini
Taxation is theft period. We are taxed on EVERYTHING in some cases multiple times. Now KRA wants to squeeze even more money from us by looking into mobile money transactions. With all this money collected, is life better for Kenyans?
Hometown 🦅🥶🥶
Good job
That sugar is genuine its smuggle from uganda which has more acreage of sugacane and plenty of factories that operate above capacity....acheni tuishi
Rest in peace bro Priver we miss you
This is pure propaganda, East Africa is one.... Careless journalism
No one is Safe in this country . We are not ready for the brewing cancer pandemic 😢 my love of peanuts is fading by the day
VISIT MOROTO / UGANDA TURKANA BORDER
No need to pay taxes bado zitaporwa
THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANZ BODER BETWEEN THE EAST AFRICAN COUNTRIES
This is something difficult to deal with its has been going on for long time of period

As they say the fish is rotten from the head
Good job Seth. On another note, lingual frenectomy? Just thinking out loud.
Wow did you see that sack that had Kalro on it showing like it was certified by kalro
I think you should watch cbc market place and prepare your reporting more accurately and openly. we should see u buying the suspected contaminated food items and use accredited certified labs to do your testing. All in all ur idea for a good report is good.
Cancer is going to be so common ni Kenya come nxt 10years
10 years is too far....more like 5 years.
hasora hatuna bahati
I hope the government will take actions
Lots of panya routes
Acheni hao majamaa wakule..
In December 2022 I came across Peanuts from Malawi deep inside Kenya. Very salty peanuts with a funny taste, the order was heading direct to Meru
Wah !
They have reached out to the police and the police have done nothing. Fire the commisioner of police in Busia and bungoma. Start being serious man?
Na washenzi serikalini wanatwambia kenya haina pesa.;
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 you protect their faces and show the shop in the background. Kwani hawa vijana wa jobless ni wajinga aje?
Mtuache tuishi...All Cargo going into the east & central Africa passing through the gateway to the same via trucks from Mombasa and Nairobi even Tanzania pass by Busia and government doesn't give us anything !!!! Magendo mpaka tutapiga
Was Seth Olale paid for this piece?
citizen mkona ufala mnaficha sauti and the face plus the body structure is seen
Wachaneni na sisi...hii serekali at tu ikipea kitu haitusaidii
Borders ?
Busia County Government failed them the place looks like a Village . Bungoma is now more developed than Busia 🇰🇪
Hizi vitu nimeona tangu nizaliwe hapa busia.
Corruption is the mother of all evil
Must police pretend they do not know this?
WHY should we have boadres??
Good question
FirstTake samples of items thought to be imported that are in dukas , test and if there is any danger the fukas are warned next time you sell food that is contaminated you will lose your duka.
Proper propaganda!!! Congrats 👏
I remember when the Kenya government demolished Sophia in 1987 during skirmish with the Uganda government museveni
Muzungumuza kama wajinga wababuzetu walikuwa wanakula kyakulayawo kabila Colonial boader sasalewo ati muko wazungu.!
Kenya ni nchi bure kabisa!3rd world nation nonsense!
Nonsense,why dont u investigate the port in Mombasa,Sisi si watoto
Can't dare touch there. I support this business men and women fully.
