I am one of the strongest admirers of my friend, Dr. Khalwale, but this is one time when we are behaving like a system in engineering terms called "cut-off switch". Engineers are very clever in design, and they install that gadget, so that every time there is power interruption, it switches off a system, but it does not bother to fix the problem. It does not even bother to check on what happens.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am a Catholic and I am declaring that under Standing Order No.75.

My opinion is that, as the Member for Naivasha, I know that we need 36 million bags of maize per year. That is the amount of ugali we take. The maize in dispute is about 100,000, which went to one Kibor. That amounts to 0.3 per cent of the total quantity that we require in the country. Are we so vulnerable that 0.3 per cent of our national stocks can cause famine?
