Faki to mislead the House that the current Government is trying to sell Telkom Kenya, yet it is the previous Government that was selling it to Helios? The current Government is trying to reverse that. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the information we have is that Kenyans were losing money. Is it in order to mislead the country?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am developing it so that I find out from the CS. Maybe in quick succession and with your indulgence, the CS had promised the country that he is negotiating with the National Police Service and the KDF to ensure that the NYS recruits who undergo paramilitary training service will be given priority in recruitment. Can he give a commitment, going into the future, of such recruitment? I thank you for your indulgence.
