"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to contribute on the same. Actually, game rangers are very notorious, including to my constituents. They invade and harass even the villagers. This should stop. Hon. Members, we have a lot of dignity. There is something which surprised me in my constituency. A former Member of Parliament is operating a terror gang called TiachaHomeboys. I am not very happy with him. Last week when I was with my party leader, he came with youths. I wish the Inspector-General of Police could look into that because leadership cannot be taken by force. I want him to retire because luckily, he has already served his two terms. With two terms, he will get a good amount of pension. However, even if he wants to be the governor of Homa Bay County, this is not the time to campaign. So, I request all the Members to use their money well when serving, so that by the time they are kicked out, they do not look so desperate. A good Member of Parliament should go out, at least, with a house in Nairobi. We should not see a Member who worked for two terms going to his rural home without a decent home in Nairobi, where he can be resting when the youths are on him. Thank you. It is not just a word of encouragement."
