    "content": "I want to talk about the integrity of officers who are employed to serve in co-operative societies. A lot of money is saved in co-operative societies. If the employees do not have integrity to take care of the co-operators’ deposits, we will have a lot of problems. For example, we have a big pyrethrum co-operative society in my constituency for pyrethrum growers, which has grossly mismanaged the depositors’ funds. Some of us were educated using funds sourced from cooperative societies. The society officers have stayed there for so long. They have overstayed their terms. If there were regulations or controls, we would have ensured that the term limits are imposed, so that an officer does not stay in one station beyond a certain period of time. Officers should rotate. It is important that we get people with integrity, people with good morals and who can take care of the money that is deposited by our people. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, many of the things I wanted to say have been said by my colleagues. Therefore, I beg to support."
