    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to seek a clarification on the aspect of IDPs in Trans Nzoia County. I agree with my colleagues who have spoken that this county has been the mother of IDPs and more importantly in reference to the recently settled IDPs in Deltet Camp in Trans Nzoia and Saboti Constituency. Could the Vice-Chairman clarify how many were fake IDPs because on Mashujaa Day, the Regional Commission, Janet Chepkonga, mentioned that the list that was presented to His Excellency, the Deputy President, indeed, had some fake IDPs? Indeed, we had some fake IDPs. Not 100 per cent of the IDPs were genuine. She said that they are trying to close the accounts, so that the fake IDPs do not benefit from the money. Could he clarify how many fake IDPs are there who intend to benefit from this money that was issued by His Excellency the Deputy President? What measures is the Government putting in place in terms of prosecution? We have genuine IDPs in Trans Nzoia County. As I mentioned, Trans Nzoia is the mother of IDPs and IDPs have been coming from other counties to be settled there. The People of Trans Nzoia are concerned, as hon. Pukose has put it, because we have IDPs who have been there since post-Independence and others from 2007. We need to understand the framework of the IDPs. Is it only from the 2002 post election violence, 1997 or 1992?"
