    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. This is a very important matter. In the Constitution, we are telling PWD that we are waiting for them here in the Senate, the National Assembly and the Cabinet to play affirmative action so that they are seen to participate. Are we waiting for them to come here when they are totally illiterate? If you are expecting that, they come here and participate at the standard that would be expected of them, who do you expect to bring them to this level? I speak with a lot of emotion about this because this is an area where I committed my efforts when I was controlling the Constituency Development Fund (CDF) in Ikolomani. I built Kushiro Primary School, Eregi Mixed School and Muikhomo Primary School. It is a pity that this is coming up. It was only two days ago when I was having breakfast with the headteacher and the deputy who is impaired; cannot talk and cannot hear, but can see. They came to request me to give them two bags of beans and three bags of maize because the children had no food. Have we sunk to a level whereby Senators should be releasing their meagre salaries to buy food for children who are disabled?"
