"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister of State for Special Programmes on the frequent infernos in Makadara Constituency especially in Maringo Ward, Uhuru Market and within the slums of Marigu-ini, Fuata Nyayo, Kanaru, Mukuru Kayaba, Commercial, Kenya Wine, Maasai Village and Viwandani. The Minister should clarify the following:- (i) Whether she is aware that over 5,000 families have been rendered homeless as a result of the inferno that occurred on 28th February this year. The affected families are in urgent need of temporary shelter and not maize and beans. (ii) Why the Government has not honoured the promise by the Minister to donate sheds and tents to 2,000 victims of a fire outbreak which destroyed Uhuru Market one month ago. (iii) Whether she is aware that over 7,000 victims of the inferno intend to hold peaceful demonstrations to the Office of the President and that of the Prime Minister and camp in those offices until they are provided with temporary shelter. (iv) What measures are being taken in order to mitigate the suffering of the victims who are currently sleeping out in the cold. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the last is just a two-sentence Statement."
