    "content": "I also want to appeal that this Ministry is given more money. The money that is allocated, even if it is competing with many other Ministries, is definitely not enough to meet the needs. I am especially concerned with the nutrition aspect of the feeding. We are all aware of this disease which seems to attack the people who are only feeding on carbohydrates known as Pellagra. We have seen that it has started attacking, especially, Kibwezi and other areas. I would like to ask that the Ministry is added some money so that it can buy some vitamins which could be given out while giving the food, especially to expectant or breastfeeding mothers and children under five who cannot feed on just maize. There are also the HIV/AIDs patients and all the medical related cases that need to have special feeding. I would like to ask this Ministry and the Ministry of Planning, National Development and Vision 2030, my Ministry and the Ministry of Medical Services that we could get together under the leadership of the Minister of State for Special Programmes and map out where these people are and where we have children suffering from malnutrition so that we can give special attention to those cases."
