    "content": "I urge the Government to look into the issue of raising the cost of every commodity and service in this country. The cost of living is being raised higher than Kenyans can afford. Madam Temporary Speaker, there so many Kenyans who are unemployed. Where do they get the money to meet the high cost of living? Where do they get what to eat? There are so many who are moving to urban areas.There is a lot of confusion around the cost of living, how one can accommodate herself and make the cost of living better. Our cries are falling on deaf ears. I urge the Government of the day to regulate some of these basic goods, especially kerosene, on which most households depend on. Let them be considerate. If they table pieces of legislations which will help them to reduce prices of commodities in this country, we pass them like yesterday. Nobody choose to be born in Kenya, but we found ourselves in this great and blessed country. With those remarks, I support this Statement by Sen. Cherargei."
