    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, for the opportunity to contribute to this very important Budget process. I also want to thank the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance for the very able way he is managing the Ministry. Today, I think Kenyans look at him as one Minister who is doing his job. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I wish to also thank the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance for what he has done to marginalized areas, particularly arid areas in terms of livestock production, on the issue of abattoirs and even hides and skin processing plants. I think this way of trying to bring that economy into the mainstream economy will increase the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of this country and provide livelihood to people who have hitherto not been part of the economy of Kenya. I would like the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance to know that marginalized areas are the future of Kenya. If he seriously continued to support this part of Kenya, we can actually increase our GDP and even future Government funding into the threshold of trillions and, therefore, provide Kenyans with a livelihood."
