"content": "call it to order. I want to see a stoppage of importation of ethanol until we know who these traders are and whether they are paying taxes. We have made billionaires out of the ethanol trade and they have become very powerful that they are able to buy the police force, from top to bottom. That is why we have lost lives in Kirinyaga and we might continue to lose more. The young generation will be in serious danger if this Assembly does not act. We have to enact laws to ensure that the population of this country does not thrive on drunkenness. A drunkard is a sick individual and is not actually a bad person. However, we are treating the symptoms instead of the disease. The people who are selling poison in this country are well known. We have to go after them without fear. If we do not do that, the young generation will judge us harshly. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
