"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The President and the leadership, particularly from central Kenya have done well. That is commendable. We have to support that process but we must ask the following four questions. All the business enterprises I have seen raided claim to have licences. Who licensed those businesses to trade in illicit brew? As much as we are carrying out a crackdown, that is something that we need to sort out. If it is corruption, let us deal with those licensing authorities. Secondly, as much as we are dealing with this national crisis, we must also remember there is withdrawal syndrome. How are we dealing with those people who are addicted whom we have abruptly stopped from engaging in this consumption? So, it is also good for our Government to think of a whole continuum of processes that would not just deny people alcohol temporarily but get them out of it completely."
