My question to the Cabinet Secretary is; there is a list of prequalified suppliers for the supply of goods at Annex 15(a)(i). If you look at 22 prequalified entities, there is a supplier by the name Fast Quality Supplies Limited, who supplied 25 metric tons of fertilizers and he is not listed in the 22 prequalified suppliers. How did he end up giving contract of 22 metric tons 25 metric tons to this supplier without prior prequalification? Thank you.

Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. This question has a lot of interest. I am requesting that, if possible, let me ask my question to the CS.

The owners of this company are Mary Wambui Mungai and another company under the same ownership called Enterprise Supplies Limited under again the ownership of Mary Wambui Mungai and Mary C. Mwaniki, who were given an allocation of 6,250 metric tonnes.

My question is: Given that there are many Kenyans who can supply these commodities, why only allocate many and huge supplies to this particular person and particular company? Mr. Speaker, Sir, I said earlier that the CS is misleading this House. We have got 13 manufacturers of oil. If you give me---

Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. Again, I would want to remind the Cabinet Secretary for Investments, Trade and Industrialization that it is very unfair for him to come and give misleading answers here. If you allow me, Pwani Oil Company was formed in 1981, KAPA Oil Refineries, 1968; Bidco Africa, 1986; Menengai Oil Refineries, 1992, Golden Africa, 2015; Edible Oil Limited, 2010; Vipingo Industries, 2022; Dafot Industries 2009; Gill Oil, 1996; United Millers, 1977; Salvo Kenya Limited, 2018; Mvita Oils Limited, 2019---

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I represent Kenyans here. The CS has come before to give misleading answers. I am saying it again because I even cautioned him earlier. I said that we do not have only five oil companies. Now we have 13. I would want him to apologize and say that he is very sorry because this is his docket.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have asked a question, and I wanted to correct the Cabinet Secretary when he said that we have only five manufacturing companies in Kenya. I have given the names of those manufacturers. It is up to him to indicate that they are not five, but 13. If he maintains that they are five, then we have an inquiry on the issue. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir.
