    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. This Motion by Hon. Jalang'o is very important. It is a fact that the Langata Cemetery has reached its full capacity. It is also a fact that attempts have been made to create a new cemetery for Nairobi residents. It was also highlighted by the Member for Buuri Constituency that the defunct Nairobi City Council tried to buy land in Machakos County to support cemetery activities for Nairobi residents, but the exercise became scandalous. The Ethics and Anti- Corruption Commission (EACC) has been pursuing those involved in that scandal. Hon. Temporary Speaker, it is time that leaders urged Kenyans to pursue various other methods of burying the dead. Burying the dead in the ground is outdated. We need to think of other ways. As leadership, we need to champion other methods of burying the dead because there is no reason we should carry a casket from Nairobi to Suba or Alego. What is the purpose of doing that? Instead of pushing for the creation of more burial sites, let us think of other methods like cremation, which is now very popular and easy.
