    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to add my voice to the proposed Bill to amend the Constitution and anchor NG-CDF in it. At the outset, I support the amendment. Allow me to thank the great people of Subukia for giving me another chance to continue serving them. They voted me back overwhelmingly. It was a show of great love, great respect and a lot of trust. I promise them that I will continue serving them the way I have done. I call upon them to continue supporting me. If they have great ideas that that can help me serve better, I am very much prepared to continue working with them. It is also important to thank the great Kenyans for allowing peace to prevail before, during and after the elections. It was a great step. Kenya is growing in terms of democracy. It is great that Kenyans can walk into polling stations, vote and go home to wait for results. We are moving in the right direction. Back to the proposal to anchor NG-CDF in the Constitution, I thank the initiators and promoters of this Bill, Hon. Gichimu and Hon. Mule. This Bill is very important because of the role NG-CDF has played in this country. It has transformed our country. NG-CDF used to play many roles before it was amended. It used to finance construction of roads and schools and provision of water and health services. There are people who today celebrate having health facilities and clean water to drink courtesy of NG-CDF. If you go around the country, the impact of NG-CDF is visible. There are areas where you can walk for kilometers without seeing any county projects, but you can see what the NG-CDF has done. This is because NG-CDF has done very many things."
