Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. During the debate yesterday, I made certain assertions on the Floor of the House and requested that you allow me time to table evidence to support the assertions. There were three matters that I was required to substantiate. I am going to substantiate two of those and withdraw one. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the one I am going to withdraw was on the question of whether the Wi-Fi at city markets are working.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. When you peruse, I want you to note page 27, where the CBK has extracts of statement of comprehensive income for commercial banks. I have highlighted for you the loan portfolio vis-a-vis the non- performing loans and the bad loans. You will see that the non-performing loans, as at the end of June 2023, stood at 14.5 per cent. As you are aware, the non-performing loans for the Hustler Fund are at Kshs3 billion, which is 30 per cent of the outstanding, which is Kshs10 billion. It is simple math. I wish to table.

Secondly, there was an assertion here that, in fact, as a country, we received a donation of free fertilizer from the Republic of Russia. I have here with me an extract of the official Russian Embassy in Kenya Twitter page. On this one, I want to thank Kenyans on Twitter for pointing me to this particular page. It is a verified page and electronic evidence, for those who want to shout point of order, and is admissible in this country. You will see a communication on the official Twitter handle of the Russian Embassy in Kenya of a donation of ...
