    "content": "I take this opportunity as well to add my voice to the President’s Address to this House. As per the Constitution, the President discharged his mandate in as far as bringing the country to speed as to what he has done for the last year and the plans he has. I was impressed to realise that the President is trying to operationalise Article 43 of the Constitution on social and economic rights of the citizens in terms of access to health, education and clean water, though that was not a subject as at that time. On social security, you realise that, at the time the President took over office, social protection had a backlog in terms of the money that was supposed to be transferred to the elderly, people with disabilities and orphans. He unlocked it and the monies were transferred and it has been ongoing. He has registered more than a million elderly people into the cash transfer programme, which is a very good thing in terms of taking care of our disadvantaged, elderly and sick people."
