"content": "and has been used to sustain the livelihoods of the people. Many people are in miraa farming and they eke out their livelihoods by growing khat. Miraa has medicinal value to the people who consume it. Again, it sustains the economy of this country. Miraa is exported to countries like Saudi Arabia and, until recently, to the United Kingdom until they banned it. As you have heard, there are those who use the crop as part of their dowry. So, when people demonize what has been used from time immemorial by a certain group of people and ban it, it means that what they have been using to pay their dowry goes with it. So, I support this Motion because, one, miraa is of cultural value and has medicinal value."
