"content": "I want to speak about Sotik Constituency. I am proud to say that my people have benefited from NG-CDF for the last one year. Anybody who opposes it, is opposed to the poor who have benefited from this Fund. There are few projects that I have done in my constituency. The NG-CDF Committee in Sotik Constituency has sponsored several students, mainly from poor families, to acquire skills in TVET institutions. As we speak, I have about 52 students whom I sponsored to go to the National Industrial Training Authority (NITA) in Kisumu. They are now on attachment. One of the things which I have seen is that those students on attachments in Kisumu are already being offered jobs in whatever they studied. I want to single out the ones who have gone to TVETs, specifically those who trained on tiling. They get employment even before they finish training. We have supported total orphans in Sotik Constituency. These children could not have seen the light of day in my area. I am very grateful for that. God knows that we have assisted poor people who would not have achieved anything."
