    "content": "That is okay, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. To conclude, I am against extending the time of this Committee because nothing will change. I have not heard the Chairperson of this Committee say whether they visited NACADA. Instead they visited KEMRI. This is the case and yet this country has a special authority established with taxpayers’ money for the sole reason of classifying and establishing whether this is a drug or not. The debate is whether miraa is a drug or not. I thought that NACADA is the right agency to do this. Secondly, Madam Chairlady has mentioned that all the reports were not conclusive. If they get in touch with me because I have been vocal in opposing miraa, you will find that the reports are very clear. There is the UN Report on the drug. There are also reports from NACADA which are very conclusive. There are also reports from the World Anti-Narcotics Agency. So, it appears like the extension of time is a plot to buy more time because the findings on miraa are very clear. I beg to oppose this Motion. Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
