"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute to this Motion. Mine is a brief submission on my thoughts on the NG-CDF. There has been a misconception out there that the NG-CDF is under the control of Members of Parliament or it benefits MPs. I would like to say that the NG-CDF is a Fund that has been very beneficial to the people in this country. It is a Fund present in every corner of constituencies in the country. When it comes to issues to do with the education of our kids and students, the NG-CDF has come in handy. To those who think the NG-CDF should be abolished, the NG-CDF should be increased to serve the many needs of our students in the larger republic. I try to imagine how many students would be out of school if there was no NG-CDF. Considering the cost of living nowadays, many parents are unable to take their children to school. They only rely on the NG-CDF, some doing so entirely. We should protect this Fund, even as we introduce other forms of Funds like the Senate Oversight Fund. The NG-CDF should be a Fund we should consider increasing so that it can benefit more students and schools."
