    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I know that we do not even have systems to test. I learnt that we may need to ask other countries to test for us whether it is coronavirus or not. This House needs to trust the Government because most of us do not trust it. We are just like the other Kenyans who think anything from the Government is not right. The answers given by the Cabinet Secretary for Foreign Affairs were satisfactory because I listened to her as she spoke before the Committee. So, let us end this debate and allow the Government to guide us on how to manage coronavirus. The Government has already agreed that they will not allow some airlines to come in. This is something we should agree and work with. Let us not insist that the students in China should be brought back home or we should do one, two or three. We are not experts, but just law makers. When experts come before us to give us the truth of the matter, we want to look for answers ourselves. Some of my colleagues went to Somalia to look for answers regarding insecurity in the North Eastern Province. This is something that is beyond their capacity and mandate. It is the same thing I am seeing here when Members want to go and look for answers about coronavirus. Let us allow the Government to resolve this issue and follow its directives. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
