    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Speech by His Excellency the President of the Republic of Kenya. He elaborated a number of achievements made by the Kenya Kwanza Government. On issues to do with agriculture, today, if you go to the Rift Valley, you will see bumper harvest courtesy of subsidised fertiliser. This is a huge achievement that will improve and make the lives of Kenyans a bit easy. This is because when food is available, the economy is good. On the appointment of judges, he demonstrated that he respects separation of power. On matters of independence of the police, we see our national security officers, nowadays, operating freely and with ease. This is because they have their own funds to help them in running their operations. The President touched on health matters, which is a primary function of any Government. He has ensured, through this House, that all citizens get a cover. Recently, he launched the CHPs and ensured they are equipped with necessary machinery to ensure they serve Kenyans. I will not forget to touch on education. The Kenya Kwanza Government, through the President, has done enormously good things to ensure that our children get quality education. The resources deployed to support CBC and the junior secondary school are worth celebrating. The President will be remembered for employing the largest number of teachers, who are helping our children by ensuring they get education. The security of a nation is also very important. His Government is doing whatever it takes to ensure everyone is secure wherever they are. He will be echoed for directing that all the graduates of the NYS will automatically join disciplinary forces, going forward. This is a boost to the young people who have contributed a lot by serving our nation. Lastly, I want to thank the President for uniting the nation. It is peaceful. He inherited a delicate nation with a struggling economy but he has ensured the country is united. I urge all Members of Parliament and citizens to know that we do not have another country. So, Kenya is our country and in as much as we are playing politics, let us ensure our nation is united so that we can succeed. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
