The decision by the Kenyan government to block Uganda's milk again from accessing their market has drawn mixed reactions from analysts and economists.
Uganda exports milk to the Egyptian market, United Arab Emirates, Japan, Ethiopia and Tanzania, among other countries, with the latest sealed deal being the Algerian market that is absorbing 1.4 billion liters of milk worth Shs1.8 trillion. Uganda's dairy sector continues to count losses as the country's largest export market for milk, Kenya, again blocked export.Mwenda believes it's high time Uganda retaliated as Kenya's internal political issues continue to hinder business among the two states.
Even when Museveni sealed a milk export deal with Algeria, economists believe the continuous blockage of Ugandan milk is due to the supremacy battle between President William Ruto and his predecessor Uhuru Kenyatta.
