"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I think there is some confusion here. First, I want us to appreciate the role that the reservists have already played because they are there and they are playing a good role. However, on matters of education, we are trying to improve the service. If we say that anybody can become a reservist and then we have to train them, how do we train people who cannot read and write? I am suggesting that the issue of education be left at “read and write” because it is important that when we train them, they follow the training. Secondly, I want to follow Sen. Okong’o’s argument. The idea was to improve the service by training and providing uniforms. Therefore, if this has to be deleted, then I think there is a mistake which you must address. We cannot improve the service by letting it go the way it is. We want to improve it by making sure they are literate, trained, provided with proper firearms and supervised but we cannot do that if this clause is not there."
