6 May 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, white maize with a moisture level of 14.5 per cent, which is above the 13.5 per cent allowed maximum, was imported even though it was known that it was not fit for human consumption. It develops aflatoxins, which have killed many Kenyans, especially the people from Ukambani. Why was that poisonous maize distributed by the Government to starving Kenyans? Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I can lay a document on the Table showing that the maize which was imported had a moisture content of above 14.5 per cent and it was poisonous to human beings and animals.

6 May 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Kenyans have been starving and because they created this crisis, they thought they could bring bad maize to Kenyans. We want Kenyans to be told the truth. If you go to a doctor and he tells you: âThis is the doseâ, and you do not go by the instructions, it is like killing that patient. Actually, with the maize that was brought, it is a matter of time before Kenyans started dying.
