"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I oppose this Bill with all my might. My mind is spinning with very many questions. On one side, this Government says it is cutting down the ballooning budget and on the other side it is ballooning the budget itself with things that Kenyans do not need. They are not a priority to Kenyans. Adding these Chief Administrative Secretary positions is duplicating roles. What does the Permanent Secretary do? What does the Cabinet Secretary do? We used to have assistant ministers who never used to sit in their offices. We were just seeing them having fun. We need to stop having this plethora of additional offices that are wasting Kenyan’s taxes. I now know why the government is overtaxing hardworking poor Kenyans to give gifts to its friends. Its priorities are misguided. We are not going to just sit here and watch this go on. One minute, it is the Finance Bill. Another minute, it is the Housing Bill. Everybody is wondering what exactly the government’s priorities are. We should not save Kenyan’s The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
