"content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this particular opportunity to voice my concerns on this very important matter. I want to pick from where Hon. Wamalwa has left. He has said that the nominees list does not represent the face of Kenya and the youths. I am a Member of the Jubilee Party which is the appointing authority and I am getting tired of reminding them that we should have representation of persons with disabilities. At the moment, we do not have a single ambassador, Cabinet Secretary or Chief Administrative Secretary (CAS) living with disability. It is tiring to be reminding the appointing authority every now, and this goes to deaf ears, that we need representation of persons living with disabilities, which is in our Constitution. It is not Hon. Sankok who talks about representation of persons living with disabilities, but Article 54 of our Constitution provides that. When we get names in this House, we always pass them thinking that the appointing authority will hear our voice and appoint persons living with disabilities in the next appointment. Let us have persons living with disabilities."
