    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is very disappointing! Is the Assistant Minister telling Kenyans that, if they are engaged to carry out some work through the District Commissioner's office without any contract, the Government can turn around and say that the workers will not be paid? The Assistant Minister should confirm whether that is slavery because he has said they are statute barred. That amounts to slavery and the Assistant Minister should confirm it loud and clear. He is also aware that those people are unable to engage the Government in law suits. They are not able to go to court. Since he has confirmed that they worked, he should look for ways to pay them. He should not dwell on legalities and deny those people their earnings."
