"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. That machine needs to be looked at. I stand to comment on the State of the Nation Address by His Excellency the President of the Republic of Kenya. His Excellency the President demonstrated leadership. A good leader always listens and tries to give solutions. I want to thank His Excellency the President for accepting that there are issues affecting Kenyans. A good leader will not wish away those issues. He will listen and try to give solutions. His Excellency the President understands that he campaigned on the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA). I want to thank him because he has lived up to that promise. There have been many disruptions in the country in the last two years but despite those challenges, His Excellency the President understands the issues that affect Kenyans. The President has shown commitment to offering solutions in various sectors of our economy. The President understands that there are issues affecting the higher education funding model. The President also understands that the education sector requires adequate infrastructure. The President understands that JSS require teachers. The President understands that there is a transition from the old education system to a new one. The President has never shied away from showing his commitment to the education sector. The President has directed all of us, including the Executive and those in administration, to tell Kenyans what he is doing. The President made promises regarding better health in the country. We are all part and parcel of the SHA and the SHIF. What has happened is not the President’s fault. A problem in the implementation of the new health system cannot be construed to mean that the entire system is failing. One constituency that needs to speak about the success of this Government is the county governments. It seems like the county governments have run away from commenting about and appreciating what the national Government is doing. I challenge the county governments to pick up from where the President has left and start telling Kenyans what the national Government is doing. The President spoke about food security. We want to thank the Almighty God because we have had adequate rainfall in the last two years. Let us not forget that the President addressed the issues affecting our youth. The President has been trying to establish information communication technology (ICT) hubs. Let"

Let us not forget the role that the President has played in terms of improving local manufacturing. All those efforts are geared towards creating employment for our youth. The President understands that our economy was nearly collapsing. He has not refused, but has accepted that fact. He has been trying to create solutions regarding the financial management of this country. His Excellency the President has fully addressed the effects and consequences of foreign debt, and how to clear it. The President understands that there are pending bills. The President also understands that there is corruption. The President understands that we need to boost revenue collection. All those issues were contained in his Speech. A leader gives hope. I want to thank the President because he gave Kenyans hope. Other people run away in times of crisis. I thank the President because he always gives hope to our people. When he says that we shall do something, that does not mean that he has broken the promise. He is giving Kenyans hope because that is the responsibility of any leader. I want to thank the President because he is taking this country…"

Saying, planning and implementation are different things. The President is on the path of listening, which is critical for a leader."

I will contribute on the two-thirds gender rule on behalf of the 47 Women Representatives of this nation. We have a hard working Principal Secretary for the State Department for Gender and Affirmative Action. Because the President has chosen the path of listening, in the event that he reshuffles his Cabinet, Madam Principal Secretary Anne should remain in her position. I am disappointed that the Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Affirmative Action is the only Ministry without a Cabinet Secretary. I know that the President is listening and very soon, a woman Cabinet Secretary will be nominated. That is the only Ministry being run by a Principal Secretary and a Cabinet Secretary. We need action on that."

"content": "The two-thirds gender rule takes care of women’s interests. The President has chosen the path of listening in this financial cycle. He promised the 47 Women Representatives an additional Ksh1 billion, which was allocated. He promised us sanitary towels and we received an allocation of Ksh940 million in the last financial year towards that. The President listened to the Women Representatives this year. We are told that there are pending bills and that there is no clear framework for the provision of sanitary pads. We know and appreciate that the President listened and removed the oversight of sanitary towels from the Ministry of Education to the Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Affirmative Action. The students will soon open school, and we want to receive our sanitary towels. So, I know that in the two-thirds gender rule, taking care of the women's interests, His Excellency the President listened to me. On the issue of Gender-Based Violence (GBV), His Excellency the President said that he is very keen and appreciated the caucus that visited State House. I happen not to have been among them, but I know that they went there categorically to voice the concerns of women. On"
