"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also want to contribute to this matter of national importance about sugar. I have realised that all of us as Members are saying one thing. We are talking about sugar and we are really pushing it. But what I have noticed and everyone will attest to this is that we are politicising this issue too much. The end result is that we are going to lose the war on corruption and contrabands. Instead of focusing on exactly what we have started, we have started diversionary tactics to move away from the National Youth Service scandal, the National Cereals and Produce Board scandal, the Ministry of Health scandal and the Ruaraka land scandal. We are now diverting the issue. It has become diversionary that even when we were told that matters concerning the Kshs9 billion were made to bring this country to its knees, we have been made to give the NYS more money so that they can steal it. This money has already gone to the NYS. They are now getting ready to steal and we are being moved towards the sugar scandal, so that we can forget. Members of Parliament, I wish we can all concentrate and focus on this atrocity that is being committed against the people of the Republic of Kenya."
