    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to congratulate and thank the Member for Kikuyu, hon. Ichung’wah, for bringing this very important amendment Bill to the House. We have lost very many Kenyans. I do not know where to start from because the church that I attend does not allow worshippers to take alcohol. I am sure that my pastor is watching. If I had the power and authority, I would request that hon. Kimani Ichung’wah goes ahead to propose a total ban to alcohol consumption. There have been over 100 deaths. In Kitui County alone, we buried 20 people. Many other places were also affected. If possible, there should be some amendments to provide for alternatives to illicit brews. One of the alternatives could include stopping levying tax on Keg, which was a better alternative to illicit brews. Since the Government levied tax on it, the price of Keg went up, and Keg disappeared."
