"content": "I have a farm, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. My neighbour had cut down my trees without permission. I did not rush to the police officers because the nearest police post is 20 kilometres away. I sent someone to the Ligurus . They render a crucial and critical service. I am sure the Government relies on them to get accurate information at the grassroots. We rely on them on basic development and security services. They deserve recognition. I had a meeting with my Liguru last month. I have 151 of them. One of their requests is to get uniform. This is amazing. Somebody said earlier that they should be held private. However, they render a public service. Everybody knows their role. They need some salaries or periodic allowances. I do not think we can overemphasise the need to get it right this time. Unfortunately, the issues come up every cycle of five years. Five years in this country lead to general elections. It may appear as if we are doing it because we are about to go for the general elections. They truly deserve to be incorporated formally into the service."
