    "content": "This led to the disbandment of the Board of Trustees. That the sponsor seemed to take advantage of the opportunity and begun to appoint corporate trustees rather than have members being represented through the Board of Trustees. For seven years, Alexander Forbes Financial Services Limited, now called Zamara and who were until then providing actuarial services to the Scheme, brought down this Scheme to its knees leaving it high and dry. That the members have made the best of efforts to have these matters addressed by relevant authorities, all of which have failed to give satisfactory response. That none of these issues raised in this Petition is pending in any court of law, constitutional or any other body. Therefore, your humble Petitioners pray to the Senate that- (1) It intervenes to ensure that the directive of the court issued on 11th April, 2013 are implemented. (2) It intervenes and helps the vulnerable pensioners who have not received their pensions for the last 12 months and are now experiencing both financial and psychological torture, especially with the current pandemic situation. (3) Any other recommendations that the Senate may seem necessarily on this matter. Signed on 14th June, 2020, by Mr. Wachika, Mr. Jakaiti, Mr. Boinet, Mr. Simiyu, Mr. Luka, Mr. Maina and Mr. Ochieng."
