"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I want to add my voice to this Motion. I am one Member of Parliament whose people have really benefited from the NG-CDF. I want to say it is one fund that has helped many people, especially from poor background, to go through school and college education and earn a living thereafter. It is one fund that needs to be enhanced to enable us support our constituencies and families to improve their livelihoods. It would be very sad if this Fund is misappropriated and misused. It is one fund that has equalised education in all our constituencies. If this Fund were enhanced, it would assist in developing infrastructure and equipping junior secondary schools. At the moment, we have very many challenges in junior secondary schools. Most schools have no laboratories. In the meantime, I wish the NG-CDF Board could allocate funds for purchase of mobile laboratories as we wait to build laboratories for schools that do not have them. The NG-CDF has improved enrolment of children in our schools. The NG-CDF has been felt within our communities. It supports the very needy such as women and widows who have children, and have nobody else to support them. The NG-CDF has helped them through bursaries. It has also helped to support the elderly who have no earnings."
