    "content": "I asked them what they would like. Normally, you would expect them to say that they want some soccer balls. If they are ambitious, they would say they want a school bus, but they said they want food. As a parent, I felt heartbroken that due to the COVID- 19 pandemic and the fact that many of the students in Nairobi come from informal settlements with a lot of poverty, we have them in school without food. Madam Temporary Speaker, this is not to say that there is better poverty than another one, but I have said time and time again that urban poverty bites and stinks. In Nairobi City County and the urban areas in your counties, when someone has no food and no money, they will not eat and will have no place to stay. Many times in the rural areas, a neighbour will give you what we call a gorogoro of maize. Where I am originally from, even the fence is edible. You can cook something. However, in Nairobi City County, which I can speak about because I am from here, hundreds of thousands of children are going to school hungry. When there is nothing in their stomach, nothing will go into their minds. As a result of that, I have also proposed a National School Lunch Bill, which is in publication, that will properly address school feeding properly. I support this because I think that this Bill is a precursor because it is talks about milk, but we need a National School Lunch Act. When I saw what was happening, my office quickly looked at programmes that are ongoing. I was very lucky to meet a lady"
