    "content": "I want to comment on the Statement about social protection by my colleague and neighbour, Hon. Akujah. The Committee should address itself to several issues. Firstly, it is immoral for anybody to eat money or misuse money of a dying person. I hope the Committee will look at that element of punishment, particularly of the person eating that money. Social protection funds are for helping people who are already vulnerable and dying and they want to live. It is unfair if the person we entrusted with the responsibility of saving that vulnerable person eats the money. That should be a capital punishment, in my view. The Committee should propose amendments to the law so that if somebody is found misusing or eating money meant for a dying person, that person is slapped with a very heavy punishment. Secondly, on the same social protection issue, is the predictability of receiving the money. People are from Loima in Pokot, or from some far-flung counties in this country, how do they know that this money is available and even plan with it? They do not know.
