    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to support the Petition by my good friend, Hon. Twalib. I also want to confirm that I worked in Machakos in Athi River and I was very close to the management of EPZ. At that time, you were a principal magistrate in Machakos. Those issues of EPZ are not taken seriously. Most of the companies which work there do not stick to the Employment Act and labour laws of this country. So, we want to propose that the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare should visit that area and come with a comprehensive report so that we can solve some of those problems once and for all. We all know that unemployment is one of the biggest challenges that we face in this country. If you announce over the radio that all graduates in Kenya should come to Kasarani, they will fill that stadium. If you are talking about graduates, what about artisans, technicians and all those manner of cadres? I support the Petition. The Committee should visit that area, expedite and bring the report to this House. I thank you."
