"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, let me add some more information. This just happened this morning when the new board, led by the board chairperson Ms. Mwadime, who used to work for the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) issued that directive. What bothers me, and I would like the Committee to look into this, is that in her Press statement, although she knew very well that it was going to affect the psychology of all these employees, she said that within the next 30 days the organization will offer psychological support to all the staff. Finally, why would the National Youth Service (NYS) be used to go and work there when the other staff are being sent to go and work from home because of COVID- 19 or is it because they want to carry out investigations? Why not use the same people? Madam Temporary Speaker, I would request that the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare expedites this. Just like you had directed that the issue of the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) be dealt with immediately, I would request that you give the same directive on this matter. This is a matter that affects families; not only the 900 staff, but also the extended family members who depend on those people who work for KEMSA. I beseech you to do that. I thank you."
