    "content": "The Statement will be committed to the Standing Committee on Labour and Social Welfare where I sit. I heard her mention about lack of compensation to a person who worked in the military for many years. Earlier on, we looked at other people who worked for the military and had not been compensated. It is quite a challenge. Mr. Otieno is immobilized, whereas, while working at Sarova Hotels Limited, he was strong and was able to feed his family. However, once he became disabled, he lost his job and he is not able to take care of his family and provide them with basic needs. The issue of compensation is a challenge, especially when a person is separated from the institution and nobody bothers about it. There are many other people suffering in this country. Since the Statement will be committed to the Standing Committee on Labour and Social Welfare, we will get to the root cause. Mr. Otieno’s children are suffering. They are not getting basic needs, such as food, school fees, clothing and shelter. Mr. Otieno is suffering and he cannot even go to hospital because he has not money to pay for medical care. . I want to assure Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve that my Committee will address this case of Mr. Otieno with the seriousness it deserves."
