    "content": "Finally, Clause 41 is talking about the objectives and functions of the Board and how those should be managed and invested. In my view, this should be guided by specific rules and regulations, so as to promote social justice to all Kenyans and all counties. We do not want a national authority, which might be under a particular Cabinet Secretary, to then be abused to the extent that that Cabinet Secretary starts favouring certain Kenyans or counties. That is why I believe that there should be rules and regulations to ensure that social justice is achieved. Secondly, in those rules and regulations, we must clearly put it in writing such that we prevent abuse by the Board of Trustees of this particular Fund. All the Members of Parliament are alive to the unjustifiable cases of the unjustifiable enrichment through the funds at the National Social Security Fund (NSSF). In fact, it is unfortunate that some of these people who have unfairly and unjustifiably enriched themselves using the NSSF funds are politicians. We must put these rules and regulations, so that never again shall a politician, be it a Minister, Assistant Minister or even the Head of State or the Deputy President, abuse this Fund for personal and unjustifiable enrichment. With those remarks, I strongly support."
