    "content": "where we are talking about operation of factories. We also feel the impact at the level of the food that we put on our tables. This affects all Kenyans at all levels. This matter must be addressed with the urgency that you have directed. Hon. Speaker, I would like to thank you very much for the guidance that you have given that this matter does not go before the Departmental Committee on Energy, where they would deliberate and invite so many stakeholders, but would not give us the solution we are looking for. You have also guided the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning to make sure that, as they bring a report to this House, they also attach a proposal for the House to pass. So, we would like to thank you very much for your wisdom in the direction that you have given. Our country gets a bad image. Normally, it is others coming to Kenya but now it is Kenyans near the borders that run outside the country to get fuel at lower prices. This matter needs to be handled because we need our image. We are the bigger brother within the region. As Hon. Nassir enumerated, the Committee needs to go through all the stated levies and identify the unnecessary ones so that Kenyans can be shielded from the impact that we feel right now. This is the solution that this august House can provide to Kenyans. Thank you so much, Hon. Speaker."
