    "content": "area. They may not want to move to Nairobi, Mombasa or Kiambu town, but to live in their area where they do their business. Maybe they have a piece of land, inherited from their father or bought. All that person requires is a decent house. Since they may not have money, why should the Government not provide that housing for such a hustler? Madam Temporary Speaker, we have put that in this Bill. Such a hustler will go to the mortgage scheme that has been introduced by this Bill. Through their voluntary savings and the title of the land they want to build in, they can get an affordable mortgage from the Government. That way they are able to build beautiful houses according to their dreams where they belong and their villages as well. How do we protect such funds from misuse? We use their savings as collateral and their land titles. With that, this Bill has taken care of every Kenyan. What was in the air before seemed like we were only building houses and skyscrapers for the urban areas. However, through this Amendment that will be brought by this committee, we will be building houses for everyone. Without taking much time, I would urge the Members of this House to support this Bill because we said before that we were not involved, but now we are. We were saying the counties have not been looked into, but we have now factored that by making those boards and sending the funds. This Bill is what every Kenyan has been looking for. This Bill is what the courts said we should have. By putting these structures together, we will be able to have everyone in this county have a decent home and a house of their liking depending on the location and place where they come from. I second that this Bill be read a Second Time. Thank you very much."
