    "content": "PSC Commissioners we are going to approve today; that they will deliver to the best of our interest. Finally, Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is a problem in this country. The media has been the biggest lynch mob against Members of Parliament, be it Members of the National Assembly or Senators. They have already accused us of increasing our salaries. I wish to urge my colleagues, Commissioners Sen. Cheruiyot, Sen. Khaniri and Sen. Mugo, to ensure that if there is anything to do with finances; be it allowances, emoluments or salaries, the only rightful body to communicate about that is the PSC, which is a creation of the Constitution. This will ensure that we do not have this confusion where these other bodies are busy saying that Members of Parliament have increased their salaries or allowances or any kind of facilitation that we are getting. This will help us have a clear channel where some of these issues are communicated. Therefore, I want to wish our Commissioners all the best. Go and serve us with dedication. Mr. Speaker, Sir, with your indulgence, I almost forgot to say this; that the office of the Members of County Assembly (MCAs) is better than our offices. I am sorry to say this; but for us to even get a printer or a seat in the offices that we have been given, one can wait for up to six months or one year. I am temporarily handicapped yet I had to struggle to get a seat. The ball is now on Sen. Aaron, Sen. Khaniri and Sen. Beth Mugo to ensure that as Senators, we reflect the status and stature that is provided for Senators, as my brother, Sen. Faki, has said. I support."
