Our next point is social amenities should be equally distributed. These amenities include, hospitals, schools and road. And we
also require our new Constitution that Mp contribute to the process of our budget making fees. The MPs are close to the
problems of the citizens they represent.

Waithima Mwangi Samuel: My names are Waithima Mwangi Samuel. We were proposing on the following. The first one
we were looking on security. On the issue of security we were saying that no community under whatever circumstances should

unemployed.
On the land issue we were saying, people with more than 100 acres of land should be taxed so that we should not have misuse
