"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving this important issue the priority it deserves. This is a national security issue. I want to inform the Leader of the Majority Party that when he mentions consent, going by the lengths of queues that we saw at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC), it is not possible for a jobless person to give consent. Therefore, that is not applicable. I have a few questions for the Leader of the Majority Party. The Worldcoin founder is a tech entrepreneur from the United States of America (USA) called Sam Altman. However, if you read their terms of reference, the company is not applicable in the USA. If you are a resident of the USA, a company registered in the USA, or a USA citizen, you cannot access those tokens. Therefore, they are taking advantage of jobless Kenyan youth to lure them into data mining that is not only illegal, but also evil. How many eyes and irises have been scanned so far? What are we talking about? I walked around the KICC yesterday and the day before and I saw women carrying children whose eyeballs were also scanned. Even a child’s scanned eyeball was fetching money. How many irises have been scanned? Even if we are conducting an active investigation, where is this data? Has it been confiscated by the Government? Where is our National Intelligence Service (NIS)? For this to have happened for four days before the cabinet secretaries reacted is quite sad. If these cautionary measures have been in place since May, how has this company been operating with impunity and without a care in the world? The data that has been collected should be produced and should not be shipped out of the country, so that we not only protect our citizens, but as a Government, ensure that their safety is guaranteed. It is not the work of cabinet secretaries to issue cautionary statements. It is the role of the Government to protect its citizenry. I expect clear guidance and answers from the cabinet secretaries and the Leader of the Majority Party on this matter. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
