"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish also to join my colleagues in thanking Hon. John Kiarie for bringing this very important matter on the Floor. I am very disappointed that from those parts of the country especially the northern and north- eastern parts, there is no representation and there have been no beneficiaries from the stimulus one-off package. Has COVID-19, indeed, not affected this part of the country the same way it has affected the rest of Kenya? Does it mean that we do not have artists in this part of Kenya like we have in Mount Kenya region? We need equity and recognition of artists all over the country. Therefore, the Ministry should endeavour to look through the list again and try to cover this part of the country just like it has covered the rest of the country. Our region very often does not benefit from stimulus packages such as this one or many others that have been given under the COVID-19 Pandemic. So, we ask the Executive and the relevant Ministry to endeavour to distribute these resources equitably, so that people from Mandera South can also benefit from the stimulus package. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
