    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have a few questions about the current situation. Currently, we are aware that the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Development is handling those who are 65 years and above. It is only handling the elderly in 44 districts. In those districts, they are only handling the elderly in one location each. So, when I look at this Motion, I see that we are being a bit ambitious when we talk about 60 years and yet, for those who are 65 year old, we have not been able to cover the country. My biggest question has always been how the 44 districts were chosen. I think they were chosen arbitrarily and we do not know whether the poverty index was used. As the hon. Member for Ijara has said, Ijara and Turkana are not covered. Then, who is covered? Those are areas where the poverty index is very high?"
