"content": "given points during activities such as the physical exercise and if you win, you are given certain points. A person who voted should also be given some points so that they have an upper hand when they are competing for some positions. If the Kenya Police are recruiting, those who voted in the last general election should have an advantage over those who did not. This is because those who voted helped to put that Government in power or remove the Government that they did not want. They exercised their civic rights and have interest in the running of the country and should therefore get the first position. In awarding contracts, those who voted in the last general election should get an upper hand than those who did not vote. This will encourage our citizens to be interested in exercising their civic rights by voting in good leaders and vote out leaders who are not executing their mandates as required. If we do this, we will automatically increase the number of registered voters in our country. We will have people interested in participating in elections and we shall even save a lot of money that is being used to conduct civic education and encouraging people to vote. With these few remarks, I beg to move and kindly ask the Member of Parliament for Makueni, Hon. Daniel Maanzo, EBS, to second the Motion. Thank you."
