Kimeendeeri intends to fence off the farm with barbed wire, just like the wire that was used to fence off detention camps during the state of Emergency in colonial Kenya. He plans to pen in the workers in there like animals. He will then fit electrically operated machines to their bodies for milking their sweat or the energy that produces the sweat their blood and brains. The three commodities will then be exported to foreign countries to feed industries there. For every gallon of sweat or blood or brains Kimeendeeri will get a commission at a fixed rate.
He will construct pipelines. The blood will be poured into them and machine will pump it up to importing foreign countries, just like petroleum oil! The company handling the trade will be called KENYON-SAXON EXPORTERS: HUMAN BLOOD AND FLESH.
