    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to comment on what is going on about the war against illicit alcohol. I support the initiative very strongly. The war against excessive alcoholism in the country is timely and it is something that the whole country and all the leadership should support. The fact that it has reached the level that it has is a telling statement. It means that many things have gone wrong. In fact, we have a whole chain of law enforcers; a whole structure of administration and a whole structure of policemen including Administrative Policemen. We have many people who are supposed to be doing this work. How come it has reached the level where the President has to come in and make declarations and Members of Parliament have to be involved in the way they are being involved now? We need to take care of it now because I do not think that what we are doing is going to be sustainable. We must go back to those structures and strengthen them. Let us strengthen nyumba kumi structures because they can assist us with not only security but also issues like these because they touch on security as well. However, let us do it within the law. Let us all support this initiative. It is timely. I support the initiative. Thank you for bringing it up."
