"content": " Thank you for giving me this opportunity to support this important Motion. This Motion seeks to address the plight of vulnerable elderly persons. They are in dire need of financial aid for the sustainability of their health and well- being. I thank Hon. Nzambia for bringing this Motion at the right time. When we go to our constituencies, we get so many elderly people camping in our offices seeking money for their well-being. Kilome borders Kaiti Constituency and we share some markets. During the last rainy season, there was no rain in Kilome Constituency. When I was going to the village last weekend, I met too many elderly people coming to the market to look for food. It was not a good show and we are here as MPs. Article 57 of the Constitution outlines measures to ensure the rights of elderly persons. It is a fact that elderly persons, particularly those from vulnerable backgrounds, require financial aid for the sustainability of their health and well-being."
