"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also commend the Minister for instant justice to the Statement. But I have two issues. One is the issue of making the public aware of the exercise and whether the Ministry can avail district funds to advertise in local radios as we have done in Thika East, Thika West and Ruiru from our own resources. Secondly, could the Minister clarify, because he has said they have simplified the process of registering those who were not actually known by way of allowing the chief and elders to confirm one’s nationality and simply register them for that reason? This raises concern. For example, if a chief in Eastleigh decides to confirm a certain person as a Kenyan, in conjunction with locals there, and register him, that will automatically mean that you have a foreigner who has been registered as a Kenyan citizen. So, are there situations where the Ministry will be able to check that this process is not abused in certain areas? We know of the influx of foreigners here in the Republic."
