Balala has been on record supporting the substance which he says is an important tool in the tourism sector and that its ban was negatively affecting tourism sector. He wondered why Balala was going against his Muslim faith and the government he serves saying he was undermining his fellow CS Cleopa Mailu who banned the substance last year. He warned Balala for wanting to do business with the lives of millions of Kenyans and thanked Muslim brothers for condemning the careless utterances by the minister. To keep his image intact and save his face, Balala is now required to apologise to the public in 14 days period.
