"content": "In addition to that, we would like to know how many liquor stores have been licensed within residential estates. Do they adhere to the Alcoholic Drinks Control Act that was passed by Parliament? Finally, the Governor of Nairobi City County, Gov. Johnson Sakaja, has insisted on several occasions that OSR has highly grown. Does it include the licenses that have been given, especially to liquor stores in the city? What are the strategies? In conclusion, there is the issue of morality in terms of issuing licenses and collecting the fees. When was the current Board put in place? Who are they? Have they ever sat down to issue licenses and to how many outlets within the city? How much is projected as OSR in Nairobi City County? I support Sen. Sifuna on this matter of liquor licenses. Where I come from, the county government has given up to 10 liquor licenses in a small center of less than 2,000 people. The bars are more than the churches. Even if we were to blame these churches that are sprouting up in the country but when you check, there are more bars than the churches. A reggae musician sang that when you look outside the window and see no hope then you see more prisons being built than schools, just know that there is a problem in that society. I agree that the approval of licensing being issued should not be the issue of Nairobi alone, but it should also include our counties. I, thank you."
