    "content": "We have also done roads and water projects. I request the people of Samburu North Constituency to give me another opportunity to serve them. There is a lot of work that has not been done. I want to finish the projects that are left behind; things like roads, water, electricity and security. That is so that we fill the gap. We have been marginalised and left out because of previous systems and governments. For the current and future governments, I appeal that the county I come from and northern Kenya in particular, we are ravaged by drought all the time. No Government has made serious deliberate efforts to ensure we solve problems of drought or emergencies when they occur. Livelihoods are not well. If we improve the management of livestock and other sources of income, we would be able to fight drought and emergencies when they come. On security, we appeal that the current and future governments together with us try to change our policies to face insecurity. It is really affecting our people. The biggest problem we face is the flow of illegal firearms from Sudan, Ethiopia and Somalia. We need to face that head on in the future. I am sure the Azimio administration, when it comes to leadership, will address that. We have trust they will do that, take insecurity head on. For NG-CDF, we know this has been a very good project for the country and us. The NG-CDF has made a lot of steps in making sure we feel it on the ground. We want to support allocation to NG-CDF so that we can develop our areas. Finally, peace is paramount. I appeal to my colleagues, when you go for campaigns, let us preach peace. Let this country belong to us. It is only for us. We do not have another country. As we campaign, let us always remember to keep peace. Thank you so much, Hon. Speaker."
