    "content": "An MP is an embodiment of everything in the Kenyan society. That is why Hon. Deputy Speaker, the best diplomats or economic advisors are found amongst Members of Parliament. Kenya is a premier nation. One of the things that the President’s Speech emphasized was development of different sectors: the economic, security, infrastructural and education sectors. All these require an informed, knowledgeable and persistent Member of Parliament through legislation and oversight. That is why without the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF), there would be no representation. I will ask my colleagues here to agree with me that “No NG-CDF, no representation.” This is because without it, there would be no need of being an MP. In the 1990s, when there was no NG-CDF, MPs were miserable. The presence of the NG-CDF has given life, human dignity and taste to representation."
