    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I agree that, indeed, the Minister has done his homework on this matter and taken the issue of energy seriously. The issue of high cost of fuel and petroleum products is likely to also increase the cost of food. We have witnessed food riots in several parts of the world. That is what we are looking at! So, I want to know whether the Ministry can consider fuel blending through ethanol or it can consider alternative sources of energy, that is electricity, and particularly on public and cargo transport and electricity as an alternative source of cooking. Finally, as a stop-gap measure, could the Minister consider re-introducing price controls? You find the same oil company with a petrol station somewhere on Ngong Road selling petrol at Kshs99 per litre and the same company with a petrol station on Thika Road selling it at Kshs95 per litre. So, it is obvious that they are taking advantage of us."
