    "content": " Madam Temporary Speaker, I agree entirely with those who have said that we need to devolve the issuance of passports. The essence of devolution is to treat entities equally and fairly. There is no explanation why the residents of Nairobi City County should be favored in as far as the issuance of passports is concerned compared to someone who comes from Mandera. This process should be devolved to every county. That is what Articles Nos.6 and 174 of the Constitution are talking about. Secondly, there is also need to establish more offices that process passports in Nairobi. The Department of Immigration should be moved away from Nyayo House because the location is not suitable to cater for the long queues of citizens who go there to apply for passports. Just as the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is saying that they want an office that is situated out of town and with proper space, I think we should also do the same for the Immigration Department. Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker."
