    "content": "very accessible to a young person who has just come out of school. How strange is it that we can find one person with five identity cards? That is stupefying. It is does not make any sense at all. That system also needs to be checked. That goes back to corruption. If somebody can pay Kshs500 or even Kshs10,000 to get a passport or any other document, what are we saying here? We are talking about the process. The process is what needs to be looked into. Today, if you do not have the documents, as a citizen of this country, it is absolutely difficult for you to apply for a mortgage. If we do not look into the process of how we can get these documents, we are pulling back the youngsters who want to apply for funding to do businesses. We are actually pulling back the youngsters if the process is not checked well. I would also like to mention that on March this year, my driving licence was stolen and until today, I am still carrying a copy. That is shameful. The process now is absolutely ridiculous. You have three counters at the KRA, but ten others are empty. The queue starts from inside going all the way to the outside. You can almost give up standing on that queue. If you do not have water or food, you might as well just go home. It is very difficult. That is why I think it is very important for the Government to focus on formalizing this whole system and making it ICT effective. We should also remember that in this day and time, we have international, perhaps even local computer hackers, who go into the system and get this information for good or bad use. So, on the same note, I would like to urge the Government that while it is making this whole system ICT effective, it has to look very seriously into all those hackers who get into our systems and run away with important information. With that, I would like to once again, support this Motion. Thank you for giving me the opportunity."
