    "content": ", where issues concerning small claims are dealt with immediately. After that, there is no system for appealing. You either go home happy or unhappy, but at least the truth has been heard and the decision has been made. That is a way of dealing with our issues without clogging our Judiciary with too many issues which have gone on for years. Back home you will find somebody selling the only cow that they have to deal with a case where a neighbour stole another’s cockerel or slaughtered his goat. He will have to sell the only cow that he has been relying on to deal with those cases because he needs to pay his legal fees or travel very long distances. People have lost hope because a case concerning Kshs10,000, Kshs20,000 or Kshs2,000 can go on for five to 10 years without being dealt with. Every time you go to court, it is still being mentioned because the magistrates have too much on their desk and they have to deal with what they view as more important than your small issues. This will go a long way in dispensing justice. As the saying goes, justice delayed is justice denied. I beg to support the Bill."
