"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Now that I subscribe to Christianity, let me first of all thank God for this chance. Secondly, I would like to congratulate you for your election as our Speaker together with your Deputy. Lungalunga is the home of your party. I assure you that we are doing well. We still have a few challenges which I will put across before I proceed to talk about the President’s Speech. One, is about the elephants that are terrorizing wananchi, and, more so, in Mwereni Ward and to be precise, in Kwa Nyanje or Kasemeni Village. Ramisi Sugar Factory has become a menace. It is not paying the out-growers and we do not know where the sugar is being taken to. Today, being the World Teachers’ Day, I wish to also mention that teachers in Lungalunga Constituency expect to get a hardship allowance. I assure them that through this chance they have given me, I will push for it so that it is available to them. Land grabbing is the song, and it has already been mentioned by my colleagues. Water is also very scarce, but we still have a chance to make sure that we address those issues. Thirdly, I thank the President and congratulate him at the same time for appointing my former boss, Hon. Salim Mvurya. God-willing, if this House so wishes, he will be the Cabinet Secretary for Mining, Blue Economy and Maritime Authority. This is a very good gesture for the people of Kwale. When Hon. Mvurya was Governor, he did a good job in the education sector. He has educated so many children up to the university level. Hon. Speaker, going forward, I applaud what His Excellency the President said in his Speech in paragraph 14. He confirmed to the nation that he will be just and fair to the people of Kenya. He assured us he will make sure that the Judiciary is well-financed. I congratulate The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for informationpurposes only.
