    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. We have said on the Floor of this House that four families are controlling 67 per cent of the Unga or Flour Industry. We have said in this House that the high cost of living in Kenya is induced by cartels. The calculation of the price of flour based on the price of maize is an open formula and even a class eight pupil would come up with an answer. We cannot sit here to wait for Kenyans to continue sleeping hungry because their salaries are fixed and the Executive cannot apply a simple formula. A packet of unga should not be more than Kshs65. That is a fact. Even at Kshs2, 500 we are using a very inefficient conversion rate of 72 per cent. Is the Minister in order to constantly defend his colleague and this Government that they are doing something whereas we know that they are in deep slumber awaiting Kenyans to exhaust all their savings on food? This is a situation that can be corrected?"
