"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I oppose this Bill with all my might. My mind is spinning with very many questions. On one side, this Government says it is cutting down the ballooning budget and on the other side it is ballooning the budget itself with things that Kenyans do not need. They are not a priority to Kenyans. Adding these Chief Administrative Secretary positions is duplicating roles. What does the Permanent Secretary do? What does the Cabinet Secretary do? We used to have assistant ministers who never used to sit in their offices. We were just seeing them having fun. We need to stop having this plethora of additional offices that are wasting Kenyan’s taxes. I now know why the government is overtaxing hardworking poor Kenyans to give gifts to its friends. Its priorities are misguided. We are not going to just sit here and watch this go on. One minute, it is the Finance Bill. Another minute, it is the Housing Bill. Everybody is wondering what exactly the government’s priorities are. We should not save Kenyan’s The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor"

"content": "promises like someone saving snow on his hand. After five years, there will be nothing to show from this Government because everything that has been opposed has been forced on Kenyans, whether they like it or not. My mum used to force kids to take porridge by putting them between her laps. That is what we are seeing with this Government. It is killing us instead of giving us hope and something to wake up to every day."

What exactly is the President trying to achieve by ballooning the same budget that he wants to cut down? You cannot cut something from Paul to add to Peter yet you borrowed Paul to pay Peter. You will just be going through the same problems and wallowing in the same miasma of confusion. I do not understand the Kenya Kwanza Government. What do the learned and Honourable Members sit and do in State House? In their budget, they have added Ksh4 billion for tea. Is it Jesus who is cooking that tea? Cut the budget and mean it. We should see funding for teachers and doctors, and hospitals should have medicines instead of adding your friends' tokens to enjoy themselves. There is nothing that the Chief Administrative Secretary is going to do in a ministry. We already have the Principal Secretary and the Cabinet Secretary."
