    "content": "You will, probably, run away or maybe get surprised that I have so many cuts on my body. Some of these cuts are traditional. We go through certain ceremonies and get those cuts. The military or whoever is recruiting should not bar our people from being recruited because they have those cuts on their bodies. This is part of the culture of many Kenyans. They should be aware of things like that and should not victimize people for having those cuts. More serious is the issue of discrimination during the recruitment exercise itself. I have received complaints from the Turkana people that they do not get their fair share of recruitment. We all know that every county in the country is given chance to recruit their youth to join KDF. However, in a county like Turkana, we have noted that some people are brought from other counties to be recruited because they give kitu kidogo. The many of our people are then left out because other people have taken their place after bribing. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
