"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, I will do exactly that or even less. Thank you for giving me this glorious opportunity. I have not seen the detailed Report about these Funds. Hon. Ng’elechei pre-empted many of my points on this Motion. She said that there are 84 Funds in this country. How many people know that we have such a number of Funds in this country? Certainly, very few. Recently, I attended a meeting with all the CEOs of these Funds and I asked them what they were doing to publicise or to make sure that Kenyans know about the Funds. The Funds are meant to alleviate poverty by way of borrowing, trading, and paying back. If you open a hotel today and you do not advertise it or direct customers there, no one will ever visit that hotel. All these Funds should operate like commercial banks in Kenya and as if they are in business. The Government should create awareness about the Funds to all Kenyans. I propose that we have an umbrella ministry to house all of them."
