We have taken the cue from the people of Kilifi who are slaughtering their parents because they are above 50. I hope this Parliament will not take that cue and that it will respect and appreciate seniority. That is because we all wish to live long in this country. We all wish to come back to Parliament many times. We all wish to be somewhere even at the age of 70 and 80. I rise to support this Report although it has got one defect. The defect is this: People believe that if they appoint two people from Nyanza, they have covered the whole region. I have heard somebody complaining today that Migori and Homa Bay have not been given an opportunity in the Government and yet, we have got two permanent secretaries from there. There is a part of Migori - the Kuria side - which has never been considered. It is marginalized. The same now is being extended. That region is marginalized by people who think that if they appoint people from Siaya, they have represented Kisii. But be that as it may---"
