    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for allowing me to also contribute to the President’s Speech. I thought the President had forgotten his Speech when he stood up to speak. He looked worried and spoke without reading. I later realised that maybe he had memorised it. He gave what looked like a self-examination of his conscience and a report to the country. Only those who sit in Government believe that things are okay. The President is a worried man judging from his body language on that day. Things are not working. He just stopped short of informing the country that we are in trouble. I believe he has good intentions for the country and he will move speedily to get us back on track within the next 12 months. Some people serving with him in Government are not helping much. We saw in the media a lot of wastage on Monday, the day they declared a national holiday for planting trees, by a Government that is already struggling with cash constraints. Cabinet secretaries and senior Government officials were flying from one corner of the country to another to plant trees. Deputy County Commissioners (DCCs), chiefs, and local leadership could have done that job very well. I believe that that is part of controlling Government expenditure. The President needs good people around him to help streamline economic The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
