"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not agree with Sen. Cherarkey on a lot of things, but I agree with him on the issue that he has brought to the Floor about village elders. Let us not even make the service of village elders too academic or elitist. Why do you need a university degree to be able to resolve small village issues? The best qualification for a village elder is a person who is mature enough to understand the challenges of the village and who is known within the village, who knows the boundaries of the village, relationships within the families of the village and the culture of the village. We should not make these things too academic. Otherwise, we are going to have a situation where we shall say that the people who work in our farms must have degrees in agriculture. Let us be realistic. Where the rubber meets the road in the villages, let us have mature men and women who can arbitrate on issues, people who understand the issues in their villages. I support."
