    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.105, for responsibility of statements of fact. I want Sen. Cherarkey to tell this country where I can buy unga at Kshs150, if I left this Chamber this afternoon. Secondly, the history of this nation is known. There have been four or five governments in the past. The last regime is known as the Jubilee Government. There has never been a Government in this country called “handshake” Government. The Jubilee Government had the President as His Excellency Uhuru Kenyatta. His Deputy for ten years was none other than Hon. William Samoei Ruto. Can he substantiate when he talks about this “handshake” Government, who was the leader of this Government, where they campaigned in this country and who voted for them? They should take responsibility for the problem that we face in this country. Third, if he says there is no economic crisis in this country, I do not know the people the Senator for Nandi County leads. I can speak authoritatively for the people of Nairobi City County, that we are, in fact, struggling to put food on the table. We are unable to afford the high cost of electricity. We were in this Chamber just yesterday with the Senate Committee on Energy, discussing the question of how we can lower the cost of electricity. Can he tell us how much they are buying maize flour and how much they are paying for electricity in Nandi County? We can all move there if there is no economic crisis in Nandi County."
