"content": "that will be a very clear criterion and there will be no much argument. We should take the census of all the old people in our communities or in the areas that are being covered starting with the oldest. That way, everybody will know that when they get to certain age, they will definitely get that support. At the moment, it is not that clear and it causes a lot of concern. Because the criterion is not that clear, it has opened room for corruption. Another area that should be focussed on is that of food security. What needs to be done is not just provide food rations to our people but try to support them to produce this food themselves. This can be done more by providing affordable inputs. In the last season, we provided inputs particularly fertiliser and seeds to our people. We are expecting a very good harvest. That is one way. As they rightly say, the idea is to keep promoting people so that they are not that dependent and they can do some of the things on their own. The principle behind this particular programme and what is recommended here is that all of us should be our brothers and sisters keepers. I also want to suggest very strongly that the issue of universal healthcare should be taken seriously. I have no doubt that a properly run and programmed NHIF can do this. With those comments, I support the Motion."
