"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, first of all, I would like this House to remember that I am the one who said that our county representatives are really feeling bad. I just wish that I could be given some time so that I can narrate a typical case in my county. I have a county representative who lives in Loitokok, his name is Leng’ete. He represents Ilasit Ward. He travels for about 250 kilometres from Njukini to Kajiado. Every week he sells one ram at a cost of about Kshs7,000. He then uses Kshs2,000 for travelling, Kshs1,000 for lunch and dinner then he lodges with Kshs2,000. We were just told the other day that the allowances for those people are Kshs3,000, but you can see that he ends up using about Kshs5,000. This is somebody who left his job, he was a lawyer, to represent his people."
