"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I congratulate Hon. Wamuchomba for coming up with this very important Bill that will take care of our elderly persons. As she has rightly said, the elderly in our society have suffered because of negligence. Sometimes even their own children do not take care of them. Hon. Temporary Speaker, Africans used to take care of the elderly because they believed in the blessings that they received from their fathers, grandparents and great grandparents, but that is no longer the case today. Today, many elderly people have been exposed to a lot of danger, especially elderly persons who own some land and have no one to take care of them. People only eye their property. They do not want to take care of them. They have been exposed. I am here to second her and urge other Members to support this Bill so that our elderly can lead dignified lives as they age gracefully. I second. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
