    "content": " Hon. Speaker, as I move this Procedural Motion, allow me to also join you in commending the team of Senior Counsels and our very good lawyers who have represented us. For the record, it is important to mention that Senior Counsel, Hon. Otiende Amollo, and other lawyers are not representing Members of Parliament in court. They are representing the NG-CDF committees from the various constituencies, including some school children who have petitioned the court on account that they are not able to access bursaries. It is good for the record to be clear that since the Members of Parliament are not stakeholders per se in the NG-CDF, this team of lawyers is representing the actual stakeholders of the NG-CDF, the Kenyan children who have not accessed bursaries, and the NG-CDF committees that are not able to implement security projects and school infrastructure development projects. The Senior Counsel and other lawyers from this House who have given their pro bono services to those committees, school committees and project management committees (PMCs) in villages across the country, we commend you. I am sure Hon. Babu Owino was seeking recognition because he brought children from Embakasi East who petitioned the court to be allowed to access bursaries though the NG-CDF."
