    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute to this Motion. I want to make a very deliberate comment. Most Members in this House are parents who are capable of paying their children’s school fees without struggling. Their salaries can support that and their ventures are not one bottom trusted. When we talk about NG-CDF and NG-AAF, we are here as ambassadors of the most vulnerable people in our societies, children who depend and look upon us. In October, I donated part of my salary to parents in dire need of school fees because children are just about to sit for exams and they do not have money. Hon. Temporary Speaker, when we talk of NG-AAF and women empowerment, we are not empowering the rich women in this country but those at the grassroots who are in dire need of money, those who need capital even for the smallest businesses. When we talk of administration blocks, those are archaic and old blocks and we are trying to bring up new facilities for our people who elected us. We are the voice to the voiceless. We support the most vulnerable people and we are the bridge between the Government facilities and our voters. I support this and would like to tell the people who are opposing this to be more philanthropic. They should visit their villages and see how people suffer to access these facilities. Thank you."
