    "content": "Madam Deputy Speaker, if you buy a simple product from abroad, it will you Kshs50,000. However, here in Kenya, it will cost you Kshs150,000. Look at fuel as an example. The cost of bringing fuel into this country is Kshs56, but we end up paying Kshs110 per litre because of taxes. This is the debate we normally have every 14th of every month. I believe that my good friend, Hon. Ukur Yattani, means well for this country. Before forwarding anything to Parliament, he should sit down with his people and tell them ‘no, it is enough’. Madam Deputy Speaker, if there is anyone out there who does not notice this country is bleeding and that every single penny which is out there should be sent to counties to fix roads rather than putting it aside, that person needs to wake up. We must learn to live within our means and stop the utopian thinking that if we set up some money aside, we have taken care of everything. With those few remarks, I support and fully appreciate the work of Sen. Faki on this matter."
