By having a Refugee Trust Fund where some money is paid into, if a refugee wants to become a musician or mason, they can access it. I think this is the only way to give people a dignified life. I would like to request the Chair of the Committee that this is in no way harmful but will help us with the long term security issues of the country. If a refugee is idle the only thing he or she can think about is to cause mayhem and chaos in the country but if we create a trust fund where refugees will draw from this will ensure they have durable solutions and that is good for Kenyans."}
