even America which claims to be the most open economy, remember at the time of President Clinton, there was a crisis of importation of Russian Iron into the country.

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me the opportunity to contribute to Hon. Jude Njomo’s Motion. I wonder why Kenyans are surprised at the voter apathy. I also wonder why Hon.
