    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance to speak to this matter of great concern. Members of MUSCO are becoming helpless in their own country. It is quite unfortunate that these members have gone to the Cabinet Secretary, to courts and they have even looked for a liquidator. However, all of them have never assisted them. It is even quite unfortunate that the liquidator himself or the institution is actually deregistering the SACCO and wanting to sell the structure that has been put up by these SACCOs. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is outright corruption. This rampant corruption must stop as a matter of urgency. I agree with this liquidator to tell us why he did not follow the right procedure. This is not the only SACCO. In fact, one of largest SACCOs in my county collapsed with millions of shillings belonging to its members. This particular amount of money was supposed to be used to pay school fees, medical bills, food and basic use in the family. Right now, these people are at the mercy of courts. In this case, it seems they are being taken round in circles. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank Sen. (Prof.) Kamar for bringing such a very important Petition. I would like to request that the Committee that will consider it takes it as a matter of urgency because these members are suffering."
