Com. Asiyo: Asante sana tumeshukuru kabisa kabisa. Sasa namuuliza Councillor kwanza. Cllr David Morogo aje aongeleze
sisi ndipo tutamwita Bw. Javan Lagat. Councillor wewe uko karibu? Cllr. Morogo. Haya Javan kuja uongea. Lakini
mmweleze Councillor tunataka sana maoni yake juu ya katiba mpya hii aje aongee na sisi.
Javan Lagat: Kwa majina naitwa Javan Lagat. Mimi tu napenda kushukuru kwa vile mmefika upande huu na huenda kuwa
hamngeweza lakini kwa mapenzi yake Mwenyezi Mungu. Jambo tu ambalo ningependa kusitisa sana iwe katika katiba yetu ni
ni kwamba katika mashule yetu tunataka hii maneno ya katiba inapokamilishwa ifunzwe wanafunzi kutoka darasa na nane na
kuendelea hadi chuo kikuu. Ikiwa kwamba watakuwa wakijua sheria na wajue kila kitu na mahali ambapo kama mtu atakosa
atajua.
Lingine ni kuhusu upande wa wafanyi kazi. Unaona upande wa vijana sana wakati huu, tunaona kwamba kazi haipatikani na
unaona kwamba tungependa serikali ihimize kwamba mtu anapofika miaka hamsini na tano, aende nyumbani. Na akishaa enda
nyumbani he should not vie for any seat. Let the young people do that because we have people who are elite and (interjection)
Com. Asiyo: …watu wa miaka hamsini na tano… (inaudible)
Javan Lagat: They retire and they should not vie for any seat, yeah. Jambo lingine ni kwamba tunapata wakati wa uchaguzi
kama wa wabunge na councillors, tunataka kwamba kama wanachaguliwa wachaguliwe na itumiwe secret ballot pia counting
ifanywe katika polling station.
Com Asiyo: Na hiyo imefanyika tayari.
Javan Lagat: Ok thank you. Jambo lingine pia, ni kwamba nomination kwa bunge ifanywe kwa wale ambao tuaita disabled
but educated. Those people with disability but educated. Another thing, ni councillors. Councillors wakuwe nominated na iwe
kama with disability lakini wanajua kusoma. Na lingine pia ni wamama wapewe nafasi ya kuwa nominated especially
councillors na wabunge wamama pia wapewe nafasi at least 10% in the government because mimi nili propose federal
government. Ingine ni kuhusu pesa inayopatikana. Unapata ya kwamba wajumbe wanapochaguliwa wanatumia pesa kwa njia
baya ama kwa njia ambayo sio nzuri. Kile ningependa ni kwamba pesa ikunje kwa wananchi ipitie cooperative society and
then it will be managed by the wananchi in projects ambazo ziko kwa that particular area.
Kuhusu maneno ya insurance. Unapata kwamba other countries like America people are insured and you find that in Kenya if
people are insured for example mtu anapochukua insurance ya gari mtu anapopata accident yhou find that the family of the
deceased people wanakuwa na shida ya kupata ile beneficiary kutoka kwa institution. So inatakiwa sisi serikali the central
government ifanye juhudi kwamba if at least that thing is done it should be within the local authority.
Jambo nafikiri la mwisho ni kwamba Rais asiwe na mamlaka zaidi. For example awe kuwa mkuu wa majeshi, we want the
minister concerned to take over. And another thing is like our universities you see that the President is the chancellor. We want
the chancellor of that university to be the chancellor and then we have to find a chancellor not the president and we limit. And
