    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support this Motion of Adjournment. Since we have been here for some time, I think it is high time we take a break and go and join our people. Just to mention about the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF), we want to say that it is something that has been going on very well but the Government should take it seriously, so that we do not limit our resources. We plan for our projects at the beginning of the financial year but as you know right now, we only have 50 per cent. In some other constituencies like in my own, we do not even CDF managers although we are saying that they should be the AIE holders. The CDF board should be serious on recruiting the funds managers so that we can have them in place all the time. We also want to go and prepare our people about the coming Census, so that they can know about the seriousness of the Census so that they can be out there to be counted. This will ensure that when we are doing the planning, we have a good plan and we involve everybody. We also want to go and preach peace although the country is now stable. We want to reunite the people who are still internally displaced, so that we can have peace and continue existing as we were before. We also want to go out there and talk about farming because unless we change our farming methods, I think we will be having consistent famine. It is also time we took a break because we have so much Committee work pending and our Committees have just been constituted. So, we want to also venture into Committee business and I hope this time, we shall clear the backlog. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
