"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also thank the Member for Lari for that genuine concern. Indeed, the issue of relief food being mismanaged by some officers who are entrusted with the distribution of the same to the needy is a concern even to the Ministry. Following some reports, a secretariat has been set up to specifically monitor efficient distribution of relief food to the nation. Stern action will be taken against any person caught mishandling relief food. No mercy should be expected because it is a very sad situation if those entrusted with feeding the needy resort to stealing from the affected Kenyans. This is not something that can be taken lightly. Some of the pictures we see on the screens are very disturbing and we have formed that secretariat to effectively deal with those officers. Further, as a Ministry, you may be aware that we do not have our officers in the districts and, therefore, we rely on the Provincial Administration. However, I now want to report to this House and the nation at large, that we have got approval to recruit staff in the counties and shortly, we shall be advertizing personnel who will be handling Ministry affairs at the county levels."
