    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate that and I do not want to argue with you. I know that whatever I am saying is factual. We are trying to say that for this country to be run well, as Mr. Muturi has said, a committee should be formed, so that we can be able to vet public appointments. If a person from my tribe is making a mistake, I have no objection to him being sacked. But when a person is qualified to do a certain job, but somebody else is given that job and he is supposed to train the new officer on how to do the job, it is not right. Whether you are Mr. Otieno, Mr. Owino or Mr. Onyango or anybody else, we need to look into this matter more seriously in order to help this country. I am not blaming the President, but the Ministers who have been appointed. They should consider this fact that is so important and appoint people equally in parastatals. They should appoint people on merit, based on their qualifications. They should not appoint people who cannot deliver. There is no need of appointing people who ask their junior officers to do the work, yet they are not paid the same salaries. I believe that as time goes by, the situation will resolve itself. We are soon going for the general election, and this problem will be sorted out. With those few remarks, I beg to support the Motion."
