    "content": "the income of an individual Kenyan. We must make the rich pay more so that they support the poor. That way, we will cover the 50 million Kenyans who are in need. Hon. Temporary Speaker, another problem we have in the marginalised areas of Northern Kenya is housing. The Kenya Kwanza Government has started to put up some houses. We urge the Government to start from those needy counties when the time comes. Let us have the bottom-up approach, which will help those who are already marginalised to access housing. The other issue is Identity Cards. We still have challenges in acquiring the Kenyan Identification Card in the marginalised counties. I do not know why a person from Northern Kenya cannot acquire an Identity Card as easily as a person from Busia. We have members of the Luhya community in Uganda and Ugandans in Kenya and yet they do not experience such a problem. However, if you are from Mandera, you are told you are bordering Somalia and, therefore, you are subjected to unnecessary processes. We cannot have Identity Cards from two countries. Let us only have the Kenyan Identity Card. We want uniform application of rules. Our youths are frustrated because they cannot get Identity Cards as quickly as possible. Consequently, they cannot get employed or access higher education. Many of our area Members of Parliament have spoken about this but nothing has come out. We will move very first and demand our rights. With those few remarks, I support the policy of delocalisation of teachers and donate the remainder of my time to other Members."
