"content": "ethnic political party that have the Party Leader, the Secretary General and the Vice-Chairman coming from a distant of three kilometers from each other –they come from the same village –they are buddies and can walk from one home to the other. To us who believe in the Hustler Movement; he is still our Majority Whip; he is a progressive leader; he built KMTC from scratch, from buying land up to now that there are students studying in the college. As I support, we need professionalism in this noble profession. Insurance is about risk and it is about what I may encounter that is not favourable to me. When we have quacks in that field, and you assume you are insured, unfortunately when you get an accident; it is only that time that you will realise you were dealing with a quack because the industry is not regulated. We have had Kenyans who feel they are insured only to fall sick, and when they go to hospital, they realise that the insurance they took is fake or sometimes, is not comprehensive but third party. All these happens because we are dealing with an industry that is very important, but is not regulated. I support this Bill so that we can regulate this very important profession. This is so that we deal with a profession that is controlled by professional ethics and law. When Kenyans encounter such mismanagement of this profession, they do not have anywhere to run to. If you go to the court of law, there must be a law that will be able to be evoked by the Judiciary to be able to act. This Bill is long overdue. I urge the whole House to support the Bill so that as we can go to form the next Government – UDA Government; and probably, seated on my right is a potential running mate candidate. You should know your Deputy President in advance so that you can consult with him around the precincts of Parliament because he is a possibility. A running mate of UDA must come from within this House and you should know people. I support."
