    "content": "in Gikomba; we must protect Halima in Eastleigh. We must bother that there is Halima in Eastleigh. Our people have been victims of a fake thing called counterfeits. Even a United States of America company called EPO goes to China and produces generic products. How can you tell which one is fake amongst the suits that we are wearing? If you look at the suits won by Hon. Speaker and Hon. John Mbadi, how can you differentiate them? Everybody is wearing clothes. We allowed mitumba to be brought into this country. It is better to buy a low-quality generic product. We agree with Government that they must protect the safety of the products. There was something called “multi-agency”. They started killing all our businesses. There was what was called consolidation in the whole world. We must have the Regional Integration Committee of this House and the Members we selected to sit in the East African Legislative Assembly telling us, what is our value as members of the EAC? Is Kenya getting value for its membership? I am shocked. We are not just here. We are representatives. That is why we have issues with the Senate. They protect counties. We protect individual Kenyans and their businesses. Yes. Today, our people can do business. You guys, Members of Parliament, you eat oranges from Tanzania. Even the cabbage you eat is from Tanzania. You eat fish from China. We eat eggs from South Africa. We must, as a House, decide and bring legislation to protect our small and medium businesses."
