    "content": "We understand what the state of the economy was before the President came into power. He corrected a previous anomaly by appointing six judges immediately after he took over. Some cases have been fast-tracked since the judges took office. We were able to put up a new court in my constituency. That means that the President is aware that cases should be fast-tracked for Kenyans to get justice. The President has built farmers’ capacities to ensure food security. For instance, farmers were given subsidised fertilisers at cheaper prices. Subsidised fertilisers were devolved to our constituencies, wards and counties. Farmers are currently enjoying a good maize harvest. I can say without fear of contradiction that our brothers and sisters who were previously carrying sufurias should visit Moiben Constituency to buy maize at very affordable prices. We should not be crying about the price of unga . There is plenty of maize in my constituency. Those who have no unga can visit Moiben. The Presidential Task Force on Education Reforms has made great strides in this dispensation. Over 56,000 teachers were employed all over Kenya to sort out issues in the education sector as soon as the President came into power. Most learners were unable to practise what they learned in class in the previous 8-4-4 curriculum. We will soon see learners putting into practice the knowledge that they acquire through the new education system as a result of education reforms. We have started to see reforms in the education sector, including the universities’ funding model. Most universities previously had debts and were struggling with finances because the funding model was wrong. The current Government, under the stewardship of Hon. (Dr) William Samoei Ruto, has put things right, and our universities will be back on their “feet” very soon. Finally, the President promised that the Eurobond will be cleared in the next three months and the economy will start picking up. The beauty of a debt is to pay. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. My time is up."
