"content": "allowed to access the funds from national Treasury. We want to request the Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Planning and National Treasury again through the relevant Committee of National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations to order the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government to pay those clerks who participated in NIIMS. I have listened to my friend, Sen. Wambua, and I think there was somebody who wanted to embarrass these national leaders. Why would you parade national leaders to launch something that was a wild goose chase? I have seen some news flash that the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government has requested Kshs1 billion to print more cards. I do not know how authentic that information is but we want these cards to be delivered because they did it through a lot of force, violence, threats and coercion; that if you do not register for Huduma Namba, you will not be able to sleep in your bed. Therefore, we need the same urgency and pressure to be put in place so that we can get Huduma Namba cards. Even as we close on that, in this report - I agree with Sen. Cheruiyot - the Ministry through the Committee should table a report on how far this exercise went. Secondly, they should also tell us what they have done in the diaspora because there are many Kenyans who are living in diaspora who wanted access to the Huduma card just like the new generation of identification number that we have in this country. Therefore, in that report, they must include the aspect of Kenyans who are living in the diaspora in terms of accessing the Huduma Namba card and they should be given to Kenyans to enable them access services in this country. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I hope the relevant Committee will respond in the next few days and ensure that Kenyans can sleep peacefully and have their Huduma Namba cards. Thank you."
