The fact is that if consumed, miraa is a stimulant that affects its consumers. I request for time to bring the research paper. I know Miraa has destroyed my society. I am a living testimony. I can attest that one time I consumed Miraa and the effect it had on me. As much as I appreciate that it is one of the cash crops that brings a lot of money from exporting, it is destroying especially the consumers. Therefore, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I ask for some time to produce some documents. I thank you."}
