    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I support the regulations of the Equalisation Fund and it should have happened two years ago. The Fund is an affirmative action, just as my colleagues have said, because of marginalisation. This country was divided into two - the high potential and the low potential. Like my colleague has said, it is a result of Sessional Paper No.10 of 1965. It marginalised very many Kenyans and parts of the country accepted that they are not part of Kenya. Whenever people from Baragoi went to Nairobi, they would say they were going to Kenya A from Kenya B. Everything that happened there was low in terms of development. In fact, there are no tarmac roads, no electricity, no healthcare and no education too. The framers of the Constitution deliberately introduced the Equalisation Fund to bring some level of development closer to our brothers in the marginalised parts of the country."
