On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. This question is very urgent in light of what we have been reading in the papers; that some County Assemblies have been paying MCAs a lot of money. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, first, I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you for standing with me when I had a challenge. Three years ago, the then Prime Minister announced that people in the North Rift will not pay fees due to drought. Due to this, students refused to pay fees and there was no money from the Government.

Madam Temporary Speaker, I would like to seek further clarifications. On two occasions this year, live on our television, we saw security officers working for the KWS shedding tears and crying next to dead elephants. Could the Chairman clarify what scenario was being shown to Kenyans? Officers who are supposed to be protecting animals are very helpless. What is the missing link that can lead to the scenario where the protector, with a gun, would cry?

Every Member should also get a copy of the same so that Kakamega does not appear as if it has a shortage of support. Other counties also have the same problems. Would I be in order to say that?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the question is a bit urgent. There is a possibility that the elections will be held on Tuesday, so I would rather he gives us the answer on Tuesday next week.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the two statements were supposed to be responded to today as you have rightfully put. But I am surprised that the chairperson is not in, particularly for the last one because of the insecurity situation that my people are facing along the border of the two counties. Can we go and look for him?
