    "content": "Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to add my voice to this very important Motion. From the outset, I want to support this Motion. The Motion is very important. The Mover is thinking about how to encourage our people to vote. It is the tendency of Kenyans to register the last minute. It is the tendency of Kenyans not to go and do what they are supposed to do. This Motion has a long-term effect. The Mover talks about encouraging or trying to tell the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs to get some ideas of ensuring that every Kenyan is encouraged to vote. This Motion might not help in the ongoing exercise, but it is also important for communities like ours. What the President did was very good. If he comes to my constituency, my people are pastoralists. They keep moving and we have to encourage them by providing them with food so that they do not have to move around. They should have a point where they can get food and water as they come to register. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
