    "content": "As we are aware, most of the centres that are in place today were designed in the old days when the population bulge that we have today was not in place. That is why we have queues and backlogs in those centres. Therefore, it is important that this Motion passes so that we can have those registration centres in all constituencies. I would add that for constituencies that have more than one sub- county, we have those centres in those sub-counties so that they also benefit. I am aware that there are some constituencies that are so large that they have more than one sub-county. It is only fair, as we talk about having those centres in constituencies, that we also have them in sub- counties. We are aware of the challenges that we have with our infrastructure. I thank the Government for doing its best to improve on infrastructure so that our centres can be easily accessible by our people. Therefore, as we put more efforts in our infrastructure, we would want the Government to move with speed to create those centres in all constituencies and relevant sub- counties, where we have two in constituencies. Therefore, I beg to reply."
