"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this opportunity. I support my sister, Hon. Janet, on the issue of retirees. Majority of Kenyans are opting to invest in property as opposed to saving for retirement through pension schemes because access to their funds is a big problem. There is also delay of their funds. They get it rough when trying to access their funds. This gives way to conmen who collude with State officials to cheat retirees out of their life savings. We need enough personnel to process our people’s funds to protect them from being cheated. When the elderly get sick, they hope that they will be helped by their savings. Because of the delay, our people have problems accessing their funds. I support my sister and urge the Government to take care of our people by having proper personnel to process the payments."
