    "content": "Uganda, the things they are needed to do for them to get IDs and they have families here are so long and tedious. That is why, as a community, we need to speak about this. We need women married into various counties to be assisted so that they can vote. I assure you, the number that came out yesterday was so huge. I did not even know how to handle it. I am committed to ensure I transfer those women to their homes. I give them money so that they can go and get voters cards, which is not right. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as we move forward, as a country, in future, we need to mandate every Kenyan to vote so that they can access public services. That way, they will vote in the right leaders they want, who will bring them development. We need to slowly do away with the culture of handouts to ensure that our people understand what a voters card can do for them in terms of bringing them good roads. When you have a good road, you have access to the market. When you have a good market, you have access to profit from whatever you selling. We, therefore, need to start creating awareness amongst our people so that they can know the meaning of voting."
