"content": "3. Initiatives the ministry has developed to ensure security of local administrators across the country. 4. Long-term plans to support and remunerate village elders in recognition and support of their contribution to grassroots’ administration. Hon. Temporary Speaker, allow me to mention that this is a very serious matter. It needs to be given much attention. The deceased was laid to rest yesterday with much pain from villagers and administrators. This is a very marginalised area of Sigowet Ward. I was there on Sunday and it was not easy. There was no money even for the funeral. We had to work so much. Students travel up to six kilometres on foot to different schools like Kepeneti Secondary School, Minililwe, Cheptuyet, Kaptembwa, and Marumbasi. They go to school late because of security concerns. The suspect is still at large. The village elder used to travel for over six kilometres on foot to deliver bursary forms and collect them from the village on behalf of villagers and take them to relevant offices. The family of the MCA is traumatised. The youth went to his family’s home for lunch in order to vent about the issue. The MCA was not aware; he was not around. This has caused a lot of uproar in the society, ward, and constituency. I pray that this matter will be given serious attention that it deserves."
