    "content": "would-be Presidents later in life to even attempt going into politics. Even now, our friends keep on asking us whether it is worth the job that we are doing; and we tell them that it may not be in monetary terms, but when you look at the vision and mission you have to serve humanity in that respect, it is. Therefore, to me, I think politics aside, this is a very good Bill and it should get the support of all of us so that people can live a dignified life in retirement. When it comes to the issue that hon. Kajwang’ has brought up; that even if you are still engaged in active politics, you should still benefit, it is only fair that when you have retired and you are at home, we will support you. That is because we imagine that you are not earning anything over and above. It is only fair that we give people a balanced kind of retirement benefits so that we may not having people getting money from other sources and, yet we give them money for retirement. Therefore, when you are retired and enjoying a quiet life, you are entitled to that kind of benefit."
