"content": "requires a journey of one-and-a-half days to get to the county headquarters to get registration services. The birth certificates cost Kshs150 but the cost of coming from 700 kilometres is about Kshs4,000. Therefore, it is a burden to already burdened citizens of my county. Again, when one registrar is required to be in charge of a vast area like North Horr in Marsabit County, which requires a journey of seven days to complete, you can imagine the challenge parents are going through. Another challenge that we have is with regard to ICT. Most rural areas do not have the infrastructure. Half of Isiolo South Constituency is not even connected to Safaricom. Therefore, it is a challenge to even access communication. Forget about the internet. Therefore, it is a real challenge. Another burden is the issue of infrastructure, not only roads but even the computers at the head office of Isiolo County are only two. Even when these forms are filled, processing them takes a long time. Therefore, I support that we establish other registration centres in each constituency. I beg to support. Thank you."
