    "content": "If you take the case of the manufacturing sector, and specifically the steel and cement manufacturing sector; that sector is now under total control of one player, who is being assisted as we watch. Indeed, Parliament is complicit in contributing to the creation of a monopoly in the steel and cement manufacturing sector. We have a case where this particular manufacturer is the only person who has the capacity to manufacture billets used in the manufacture of steel; and clinker used in the manufacture of cement. This same manufacturer has the support of these people. He is compelling his competitors to buy raw materials from him. To make matters worse, he is compelling them to buy certain minimum quantities. The situation is such that in order for you to buy from me billets or clinker, you must buy quantities worth a minimum of USD100,000, and you must pay me in US Dollars. I also deliver when I want. Would you expect him to compete favourably with the rest? I will name him. It is the owner of Devki Steel Company and the owner of Simba Cement. I think his name is Guru. We must name and shame these people, if we are to rescue our country from the clutches of state capture. Hon. Speaker, we must do so."
