"content": "ask Members not to whip our emotions on this Bill. Opportunity has been given to us to come up with suggestions which we can use to correct whatever is wrong. We can give our input and create more opportunities for our people. Therefore, I ask Members to come up with whatever suggestions they might have because the ball is in our court. This will correct and implement some of the issues that can make this country self-sustainable. Kenya is now the 27th fastest-growing economy in the whole world. I take this opportunity to thank the Committee led by my brother, Hon. Kimani. We should be able to move faster and come in with suggestions. If you are to dismiss a particular proposal… We have the National Government Constituency Development Fund (NG-CDF), which has given us Ksh50 billion, and the National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NGAAF) for women, which is around Ksh30 billion. They have also allocated some percentage to the electricity. This means we would be connected to electricity all over the country and be able to move on economically. This Bill is good enough, and we should not dismiss it for the sake of it. We should have a positive approach so that we can move forward. Somebody asked me what should be removed because they did not know. Let us not go by emotions but by whatever we have and move our economy forward."
