"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I will speak to the Petition by Mr. Kimutai Kirui of Uasin Gishu County on the conning that is going on. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the conning is not necessarily happening to only young people who are interested in opportunities overseas. It is here with us. The recruitment by Teachers Service Commission (TSC) and the Kenya Defense Forces (KDF) will be coming soon and we anticipate such kind of conning. I wish to warn young people out there not to succumb to such individuals. You can see such individuals, most of whom are young, driving well-conditioned vehicles and living in houses which they cannot explain their source of wealth or whatever they do to put food on the table. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection needs to conduct a crackdown on some of these agencies, so that we do not have people being conned and no one is held accountable. They are out there walking freely. The Ministry of Labour and Social Protection needs to crackdown, so that Kenyans can have a list of agencies authorized to conduct whatever business they are conducting. The agencies that have conned unsuspecting Kenyans out there need to be brought to book, arrested and suffer the consequences. We should not just offer advice to people who have lost fortunes that cannot be recovered."
