are out. Thank you. Samuel Thuku x 2. take your five minutes. Your names.
Samuel Maina Thuku: I am Samuel Maina Thuku. I am representing the dot Poverty Generation.
Com. Ibrahim Lethome What
Samuel Maina Thuku: Dot Poverty Generation. I have some few views which I would like Constitution formation to look in.
the Constitution says that a Member of Parliament aspirant should not be bankrupt. I consider being a politician as a form of
employment. when you say that an MP should not be bankrupt. You say that we shall be ruled by rich men. As a Member of
Parliament that is being a leader, a leader is born. Let me take an example. Somebody finishes university education and the job
is wanting to be a politician. He doesn’t even have an account but he is capable of asking for votes. That person should be
given a chance to ask for votes not people who have money to rule us.
In Laikipia we are not asked how we are selling we are asked how they are buying. You have 50 bags in your store. A buyer
comes. You don’t say how much you are selling you ask how much you are buying so that one is being ironical. DCs and DOs
should not be appointed but elected by the people. If they are to be their. How do you expect a person may be a Luo and he
is working in Ngarua and he initiates development projects which is the first priority. He will tell you that we want to fish ponds
in Laikipia because he thinks everywhere fish can be kept. So we want people who are called there and they know the
problem of the people and they can know what to do.
