"content": "Hon. Speaker, I beg to present a Public Petition on the designation of a recruitment centre in Navakholo Sub-county by the Ministry of Defence. I, the undersigned, on behalf of the residents of Navakholo Constituency, draw the attention of the House to the following:- THAT, Navakholo Sub-county came into existence as a district vide Kenya Gazette Notice No.1779 dated 17th February 2011. The said Sub-county is headed by a Deputy County Commissioner with a police division, education office and a fully-fledged agricultural office among all other national administration offices; THAT, the said Sub-county has three divisions; namely, Bunyala West Division, Navakholo Division and Butsotso North Division and six locations and yet, regrettably, the Sub- county does not host a recruitment centre for the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF); THAT, the current recruitment centre at Bukhungu Stadium in Lurambi Sub-county is about 42 kilometres away from Navakholo Sub-county hence, forcing recruits to travel long distances to participate in any recruitment exercise. THAT, the Sub-county is made up of two major sub-tribes and if the recruitment by the KDF continues to take place at the current location, the community will be disenfranchised hence causing disunity among the community; The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
