    "content": "here and there. There is mboga even at the fence and you can cook something. If you look at their faces, our children are extremely hungry. There is neither school milk nor school feeding. The other day I was in Kawangware and I visited six schools. There is a problem. Can that programme be reinstated? Finally, on the second Statement that Sen. Kwamboka has asked for, it is extremely important on the issue of disabilities. I know the National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NGAF) has really helped and some of the Constituency Development Fund (CDF) committees in some constituencies. Madam Deputy Speaker, Hon. Shebesh did a good job when she was a Women Representative. Hon. Passaris is also trying with the issue of disability. However, we do not have many of these special units in Nairobi. I know, for instance, for autism, in Marurui, there is only one centre from a huge part of Nairobi and there is only one place where these children with autism are able to be addressed. Sen. Omanga is also doing very well, but she does not have a fund. She is just doing it out of the abundance of her wealth. You know she is extremely rich. I know when she comes and she is elected as the next female Senator of Nairobi City County, I hope she will have a fund. This is because it must move beyond her philanthropy to actual programmes. At least, she said it is also covered in BBI. Madam Deputy Speaker, please ask the Chairperson to look at those issues. We are seeing indiscipline, but we are not seeing these children. No one is looking at the state these children are in. Chairperson, please look at the feeding and the post-COVID-19 counseling. These children are traumatized."
