"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to congratulate these petitioners from Narok. As my colleagues have said, this is a matter that is happening in most counties. Unfortunately, even if members of the public raise these issues, they do not find a solution. Is money changing hands within the relevant institutions? Somebody needs to explain. I have a very good example and a Statement on it; I do not know whether you will allow me. There is a matter that has hit the social media in my county concerning the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Some youths have raised an issue about misappropriation of funds and the manner in which ICU equipment were hired. Right now, the county government is using security apparatus to intimidate those boys and they are threatening to arrest them. Members of the public have a constitutional right to raise those issues. However, I think there are a lot of challenges on the ground, especially from the county governments, where they are using tactics to stop people from doing what they are doing. If we are not doing good work as the Senate, members of the public will lose confidence in us. I hope that the Committee that will consider this petition will handle the matter properly and make sure that the petitioners have received the prayers they have asked for. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
