    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion. I want to agree with the earlier speakers who have contributed to this Motion. I like what you said that it is high time we looked into this matter so that it is implemented. The village elders are important people in the Republic of Kenya. They are important in the sense that every time the Government requires information, they are on the ground and are contacted. They collect the same data and pass it on to the Government. The only problem these particular elders have is that whenever they are working, they use their resources and time and yet they do not get a stipend. What is important is for the Government to appreciate them for the work they do. As the rest of my colleagues have said, it is a 24/7 business for them. Every single day these people wake up and do the jobs they are requested to do without raising a finger. So, I want to concur with my colleagues that we need to look for a way of assisting them. At least, they should get honorarium so that they can do their jobs better. Thank you."
