    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity. I do not want to be lengthy. Remunerating or giving a lumpsum to former councilors is very important. I was a councilor from the year 1974 to 1975. Those days they were not paid any salary or anything like that. They were only given allowances. My allowance was Kshs250 per month. I would not like to speak much of those days because most of my colleagues - I think all of them - the people I served with, are all dead. This just goes out to show that there is a very high rate of losing that cadre. That is a cadre of leadership that served this country very diligently, yet they are dying at a very high rate because they have nothing. Most of them are living in squalor."
