    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to air my views. I want to support the Motion. I want to join my colleagues in stating that it is the right time for us to proceed on recess and carry out some projects. I am a member of the NG-CDF Committee and I want to confirm that the CS has disbursed some funds that will enable us do some work while on recess. We want to ask the CS to continue in the same trend to keep the promise of disbursing Kshs2 billion in a week so that our projects can still go on while we are on recess. I want to ask the Inspector-General of Police to regulate his officers because they have taken this directive seriously and are not considerate. They are arresting young people in the rural areas, even those who go out to buy takeaway tea. Those young people cannot even pay a fine. They should be conscious and help those who are helpless. The rich should emulate the Devki Manufacturing Company in Athi River. It promised to provide all the hospitals with oxygen. The rich people in businesses who have made money should also borrow a leaf and help the poor. We should also share with our neighbours who do not have anything, especially during this time. Hon. Speaker, the directive that was issued by the President allowed funerals and weddings to have an attendance of 50 people and I want to request that they also allow churches to assemble 50 people, so that they can pray for the country as they also encourage their depressed congregants. I hope the President will consider consulting religious leaders to come up with a formula to help churches in those five counties. With those few remarks, I support."
