    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to congratulate the Senate Majority Leader, Sen. Cheruiyot, the Senator for Kericho, for moving this Bill. On a lighter touch, I hope he talks to the Majority Leader in the National Assembly to be fast-tracking our Bills, the way we do here religiously. The only time I have interacted with gambling was when listening to Kenny Rogers who used to sing country music. He sang a song called Coward of the County . The song says that every gambler has his own day and time. When we listen to Sundowner, especially on Sunday evening, that is when we interact with gambling. In my opening remarks in quick succession, it is high time we brought order and sanity in the gambling sector. I remember during the last session, the Ministry of Interior and National Administration brought an omnibus amendment on taxation on winnings and that became a big problem. At that time, we had SportPesa and Betika, among others, complaining. They felt that they were being taxed double. However, they were not declaring their winnings at that time."
