I want to point out that the data in Ruiru Constituency has not been updated since 2018. As stated, the condition of needy cases is not static. I agree with that and there are possibly many needy cases out there that have not been considered during the COVID- 19 pandemic. When the Chair was replying, you noted that about 105 older persons, 25 orphans and vulnerable children and 41 people living with severe disability did not migrated to the account- based mode of payment in 2018. These people were expecting to be paid only to find that they had not been incorporated. It is clear that a 70-year old persons cannot get any employment. It is a big concern bearing in mind that we have about half-a million people in an urban area, where, one cannot even plant a single potato.
