Anthony Kibagendi","speaker":null,"content":" Thank you for this opportunity, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I first want to congratulate you and the Speaker for your election to the offices in the National Assembly. I would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate all the Members, elected and nominated. I take this opportunity to congratulate the President and his deputy on their election. Mine is a unique story of sheer resilience, determination and relentlessness. My story should inspire young people of this country that just like Eliud Kipchoge says: ''No human is limited'', we should never give up. My political journey started while in campus in 2007. I ran for elections in 2013. In 2017, I came close to winning. Without losing enthusiasm, in 2022, I got elected overwhelmingly by the people of Kitutu Chache South. I want to take this opportunity to thank the wonderful people of Kitutu Chache South for electing me to serve them. I thank team Kibagendi, those are the people who were running the campaign and I hope we will continue working together. The President gave a short and inspiring Speech. I particularly appreciate his focus that he wants to work towards, namely, lowering the cost of living and aligning the NG-CDF with the Constitution since the Fund has been life-changing especially on matters to do with education and security in the countryside. On matters to do with the Credit Reference Bureau (CRB), I have been a victim of being denied a loan because of a small default I had with a mobile loan and that injured my standing in society."}
