    "content": "As a House, which is charged with the responsibility of ensuring fairness, we need to condemn that kind of advertisement because it is misleading young people, who would imagine that, that is what we believe in, as a country, and that it is okay to drink Tusker. It is time we called upon beer makers to account for their container disposals because they cannot run away from what they are doing. If you make beer, it is only fair that you also make appropriate disposal arrangements. How are you going to dispose empty cans? How are you going to handle the wastes from your products? That makes all the difference. We cannot keep on complaining that our country is dirty and that the county governments are not doing much to clean it when we do not hold to account the corporate entities whose waste litter our countryside. We need to do something. It is time we started using CCTV cameras to hold to account motorists who litter our roads. That is what the civilized countries are doing. In the USA, Europe and Dubai, people are held accountable for dumping waste materials in public places. We cannot keep on complaining that this country is dirty and yet, we do nothing to keep it clean. Mother Teresa once said: “If each one of us can clean the front of our homes, the entire country will be a very clean environment to live in”."
