    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. We really seek your indulgence on this matter, so that it is expedited. We are talking about lives of children in particular, and I would like this issue to go even beyond where we are focusing now. It should also look at the World Food Program (WFP) which is distributing food now in northern Kenya to all children under the age of five years. We need to also ensure that, that food is not affected by aflatoxin. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are implementing a new Constitution. It is required of the Government by that Kenyan Constitution that the citizens’ safety, welfare and food security is assured; this is under Article 43. For the Government to bury its head in the sand, and not to respond to such an urgent matter like this one, to me is the height of irresponsibility by a Government elected by the people. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this House should be the last defender of the suffering masses of the Republic of Kenya. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
