"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we could actually be getting Ministers from outside who are technocrats and who will be dealing with Ministries that they are versed in. This would add value in terms of running these Ministries. We will also not have elected leaders trying to pull resources to their regions. Of course, if you are a Member of Parliament and you are a Minister in a certain Ministry, as they say, charity begins at home; naturally even if you are an angel, you will find a way of trying to use your Ministry to benefit your people in the constituency and in the region. That would change in future when Ministers are appointed from outside Parliament. So, the work of the Member of Parliament would be strictly to serve his people in his constituency. With all the devolved resources, you do not need to be a Minister. That is the future that we want to work towards."
