    "content": "The way we have treated the former Members of Parliament is discriminatory. They come to my office. The Akiwumi Report had three components. They recommended for enhancement of salaries of the sitting Members of Parliament then. That was implemented. Two, they recommended that the Members of Parliament who served up to 1984 be given Ksh1 million each. They were given. Three, they recommended that those who served between 1984 and 2001 get enhanced pension. They did not benefit from Ksh1 million which others benefitted from. After recommending that, and that is the main reason they did not get Ksh1 million, now you are saying that they should get zero. This is discrimination of the highest order, but there is nothing we can do. We cannot get the two-thirds majority. It is unfortunate that we have treated these senior citizens this way."
