organisations like disabled, judiciary and other bodies just to mention but a few.<br />

We have these local brew and in Emuhaya right now, 80% <strong>of</strong> the people know that we had this busaa before. We feel that<br />

instead <strong>of</strong> being affected economically because <strong>of</strong> busaa being taken to court day and night, busaa should be left for the people<br />

<strong>of</strong> Emuhaya as we have beer here which are too expensive for the locals.<br />

Petitions. When it comes to petitions, once you have been petitioned against, you should not occupy the <strong>of</strong>fice until the case is<br />

solved and it should be done in the shortest time possible.<br />

Well, on the other hand, we rural people have been denied some other rights whereby we all feel that we should be treated<br />

equally as other Kenyans. For example in Emuhaya here, we cannot receive the Nation TV signals and other channels too apart<br />

from KBC. We feel that the government should let all those machineries <strong>of</strong> getting information to reach the rural folk.<br />

On the issue <strong>of</strong> retirement, I don’t see why Parliamenterians should be given benefits after retiring because they work on<br />

contracts and that contract is the same as for other Kenyans who go to work and are not given any benefits because <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Parliamentarians. Retirees or those people who have retired should not be given other positions because we have other people<br />

who have not worked even a single day and they are educated, even more educated than those people given opportunities. For<br />

example in Emuhaya here, the Electoral Commission is using retired <strong>of</strong>ficers and they are earning a lot <strong>of</strong> money, more than<br />

what they were earning and yet some <strong>of</strong> us we have never worked.<br />

Lastly, natural resouces. A lot has been said and there is another contentions resource affecting the people which is the issue <strong>of</strong><br />

Maseno. Maseno is our educational resource but right now is benefiting Nyanza people, whereby all the university staff working<br />

in Maseno come from Nyanza and yet Maseno is ours by origin. So we feel that we people <strong>of</strong> Emuhaya are not well<br />

represented in the campus.<br />

Com. Nunow: Thank you very much. Okay, please lets have your paper and you sign the register. Agneta Ambe? She has left.<br />

Magaret Lugadilu? (interjection) Okay, okay thank you. Then let me call Caleb Isiche.<br />

Caleb Isiche: Majina yangu ni Caleb Isiche nina mambo mawili au matatu nitaongea.<br />

Kwanza nitaongea juu ya vijana. Tumeona wakati huu hatuna mipango ambayo inafaa vijana. Vijana wengi wanapomaliza shule<br />

zisiwe wanakaa katika vijiji. Sasa ningependekeza tuwe na wizara ya vijana tu. Na chini ya wizara ya vijana tutakuwa na vituo<br />

vya vijana katika vijiji ambapo hivi vituo vitakuwa vinajaribu kuangalia talents na vile vile tutaweza kuwa katika vituo kama<br />

projects. Wale vijana ambao hawafanyi kazi wanaweza kujishughulisha na projects kama hizi wakiwa wanapata haki yao ya<br />

kawaida na vile vile wakipata ushauri ili kuzuia hualifu ambao unatokea mara kwa mara.<br />
