"content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for this chance. When a President whose nation has been facing a lot of challenges and bashing from the social media on issues to do with the CBC, hiring of teachers, university education funding model, Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) manifested in Adani Enterprises Limited (AEL) and the unemployment manifested in the many youths who do not have work and the promissory notes given by the Government to have these jobs outside the country… Healthcare, the now Social Health Insurance Fund and Social Health Authority also known as Taifa Care is a challenge. The cost of living has been very high. This is caused by the high prices of food starting with the basic items identified and measured in terms of what we commonly call the gorogoro which has risen from Ksh100 to Ksh250. The unstable shilling and the external borrowing that had gone overboard, and has stretched us in terms of the physical space has caused the inflation to 9 per cent. The challenging relationship that we have had with the church is still ongoing. Having femicide as a challenge on his head and many other things including the sugar sector which had completely died, the President walking into Parliament and confidently confronting those issues one by one truly shows that he is a great leader. When the President walked into the House, I was not sure how he would address the nation and Parliament but at the end of his speech, I was convinced that he is a President who is ready to confront the challenges that are before him and the ones facing Kenyans. I was very"

"content": "clear in my mind that the standing ovation that the President received in this House was worthwhile and well deserved because he spoke truthfully and rightfully. He did not hide any cards nor gloss over anything, rather he confronted everything that needed to be, head-on including Parliament itself on certain laws that have not passed, and especially on the Conflict of Interest Bill, 2023. He also confronted the Judiciary on how they deal with corruption cases. That is why this House must not feel intimidated in any way that they gave the President a standing ovation. I am a teacher of history and government. Some Presidents have received standing ovations. One of the longest-standing ovations was 22 minutes which a President in America received because of this good address in that particular Assembly. Allow me to pick up on one because of time. The confrontation that the President tackled with the SHA/SHIF/Taifa Care was so good. I have gone to the villages and realised that the biggest challenge that SHA is facing is on registration. If we want to succeed in that sector, we must make our people register. How do they register? The Community Health Promoters (CHPs) were sent three links. The first and second links did not work, but the third link is now working. Unfortunately, they need bundles to register our people. We need to move as Parliament and everyone else. Possibly, I am speaking to the Cabinet Secretary that we need to white mark that link for registration of people into SHA so that it does not draw any money or any bundles from the CHPs, and would register everybody. Once everybody is registered, we can now confront the issue of whether it is working or not. That is one area that I thought its confrontation was correct. Another area that the President confronted was education, CBC and employment of teachers which I thought was very good but we are now challenged with promotions. The issue of the 45,000 teachers not getting promotions was because of a letter by the Cabinet Secretary of National Treasury and Economic Planning which is blocking the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) from using the monies they have in Appropriations in Aid (A-in-A). I ask this House to ask the Cabinet Secretary to allow the TSC to promote these teachers. With those many remarks, I commend the President for the good speech. Thank you."

All that matters is whether we did what we could with the life that was given to us.”"
