    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, gorogoro is the two kilogrammes tin that we use to measure maize before we can go to the posho mill. I do not know any other unit of measuring maize flour other than that used where I come from. So, that costs Kshs90. A kilo of sugar is Kshs120. Cooking fat, that is if you are privileged to get one kilogramme which we do not get; we always measure something in portions at Kshs120. Bread is Kshs45. Milk is Kshs40. When I put together the cost of these items that the ordinary and reasonable woman in Korogocho puts in her shopping basket, the poor lady should be prepared to spend some Kshs800, while on a lucky day when the husband comes from a factory, perhaps, he can only bring in Kshs120. So, the Jubilee Government must be sensitive to the cost of living. This is something which to me is a constitutional issue because it relates to the right to life."
