    "content": " Thank you, very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to also contribute on the President’s Address on the State of the Nation. Let me start by saying that if there is a man who has proven to be man enough to tackle the problems Kenyans are facing, it is the President of the Republic of Kenya. He did not give a speech full of cosmetic promises and words to please us. He came out candidly to express the confidence and trust which Kenyans have in him. He told them the reality, that we are facing a dire and tough economic situation. Not only generated from within our nation but from external economic politics of the world which are seriously affecting us. This is by virtue, that more than 70 per cent of our consumption is from imports which are affected by inflation. We appreciate that the United States of America (USA) is working on their economic challenges like inflation. The Federal Reserve is working on their monetary policy to ensure they mop back all their dollars outside their economy. This has affected us because we use dollars when importing. That is why the cost of living is high."
