(Prof.) Lesan, for introducing this important and timely Bill to this august House. For a long time, this country has focused itself on the rights of women and children and forgotten their source; the rights of the aged. I am happy because for the first time in the history of this country, the Constitution of Kenya 2010 now recognizes the rights of the aged as fundamental human rights. We might quarrel about definitions but I have no problem about the age of 65 years being the lower limit of a senior citizen. People who are 70 years; even President Jomo Kenyatta at 70, was able to give birth to the current President of this country, so they are not useless persons merely because they are senior citizens of this country. For a The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
