"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, allow me also to bring out the irony of ironies in this House. It is on record that PWDs are among the poorest worldwide. Disability is an expensive situation to manage because of the management issues, such as the accessories. Even things that are supposed to help a PWD to move from one place to another and get by like everybody else, are very expensive. For example, the cheapest wheelchair could cost around Kshs5,000, which cannot be repaired after a week’s use. That is a tool that helps someone with physical disability to move from place to another. Concerning hearing aids, just one piece for one ear costs about Kshs60,000, which totals to Kshs120,000 for both ears. The cheapest costs around Kshs30,000. These are poor people who do not have an income and are, therefore, already disadvantaged."
