    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I respect your ruling and guidance that the matter will be discussed further. There is only one problem. You are leaving it at a point where the Chairperson of the Committee has said that he will invite Hon. Wamboka and any other Member who has an issue to the Committee. That is the problem. When a Member poses a question and many other Members find that the same issue affects them, they usually await the answer instead of everyone bringing the same question. We were waiting for the answer on this. It is grossly inaccurate for the Temporary Speaker Maalim to misguide the House and it goes unchallenged. There is nothing in the KDF Act that prevents a disclosure of the names of the persons who were recruited. Before our forces are deployed, the matter is usually brought to this House for approval. There are certain things that cannot be disclosed, but the recruitment is not one of them. We are in a process where this House impeached the Deputy President for such practices. How then can we say that when we want to know how people have been recruited, it is a secret? We want to know not just about KDF, but the police, teachers and all of us because we represent constituencies. The answers should always be brought here. 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."
