"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I want to support the Report. The issue of alcohol and drug abuse is a big problem in every part of this country, including the arid lands, which never had that problem before. We do not know how those things come. Packaged drinks are going to every corner of this country, and we do not know exactly where they are coming from. The Government needs to dig deeper and evaluate whether those people are licensed and how they got their licences. It seems like whenever food is supplied to any part of the country, alcohol is also distributed. There are areas that never used to have alcohol and other substances. Those drugs are now finding their way to Kenya from other countries. It seems like this has been enabled by the security system. There is no way the drugs can be transported all the way from the border to my constituency, which is geographically located at the centre of the country. Alcohol is also transported from Nairobi all the way to arid and semi-arid lands. It is becoming a disaster."
