    "content": "wrong message. Once we used to have the GoK bed sheets in hospitals and I saw people being arrested when those sheets were found in their houses. I am sure Dr. Nyikal can bear me witness. It was written “GoK” and the expectation is that it was a free issue and could only be used by patients. If it was found in your house, you had to answer questions. The same way, if we want to subsidise food for Kenyans, let us give them without branding it “GoK” and then selling it. That does not augur well out there because people think they are being conned by the businesspeople. As the Government subsidises food we need to avoid the idea of branding unga and then selling it to Kenyans because it is not good. This does not come out well. With those remarks, I want to support the Second Supplementary Budget and plead with the National Treasury that in future, it should be brought in good time so that there is time for implementation."
