    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. In support of this Bill, I will highlight something that is bothering the Northern part of Kenya. Speaking about Marsabit, during the colonial era, Marsabit and the Northern part of Kenya were called the Northern Frontier District (NFD), who were denied all developments. Then, when we got Independence, we were called the “marginalized area” during Mzee Kenyatta’s time. During President Moi, President Kibaki and President Uhuru’s time, we were still called “marginalized”. The current Government is still using that name, but we are yet to see. We have four more years remaining. Two weeks ago, the President talked about one man, one vote. That is still called “marginalization”. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, Marsabit County is one of the largest counties in Kenya, in fact, not one of the largest. It is the largest county in Kenya area wise, including part of Lake Turkana, Chalbi Desert, North Horr and Dukana"
