"content": "Hon, Speaker, Sir, I stand to oppose the Report. I oppose the Report in the presence of the Members of Nyeri County Assembly, whom we recognise and who will take this report home. I do not see why a Committee can sit, evaluate and even vet a Kenyan who is passionate, qualified and has what it takes to fight the alcoholism menace in this country. I come from a county where we are struggling and always asking ourselves what can be done to defeat this helplessness and hopelessness in our youth. Mr. Mututho was in the same situation, but he never just sat; he came up with a law. I want to be brief; I want to tell Mr. Mututho, once we give him this job he should look for ways of ensuring that alcohol handling is included in the national security and is brought back to the national Government, so that it can be handled across the board without necessarily leaving it to the counties, which are fumbling about how alcoholism should be dealt with. That is the assignment that I will give to the Committee and Mr. Mututho once he takes office."
