    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity to also add my voice to what my fellow Senators have said on the issue of rating. I was surprised to read this in the newspapers and I was wondering what the criteria they used. I was also surprised because the issues of Nominated Senators was not mentioned in any way or are we not Senators? Sen. Ongoro was said that the Infotrak Company is almost losing credibility and it is a shame that they did talk anything about Nominated Senators. I am aware of Nominated Senators who are very active in this House, who have brought Bills and Motions and are doing a lot of activities with the communities at various counties. I have known some who have been going around this country talking about women issues because we are in this House to represent women nationally. They never told us the criteria they used and even if they used certain criteria, a number one Senator will always remain number one. We always know of Senators who are active in this House and are also active in their various counties, but they were ranked Nos.42, 43 and 50. I think it is time that whoever is mandated to do research should be vetted. Let us hope that in future they are not going to be given a chance to do a research finding on conflict or food security because we shall be in a mess. If somebody decides to give a wrong research finding about a very important issue pertaining to this country, it will be very bad. I support the Senator who brought this issue to the House."
