    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me the chance. I have been sitting here the entire day and thank you for this chance. I do not come from Bungoma, but I was born in Bungoma. I do not know the issues that have been raised by the NG-CDF Committee, but I want to make a few comments here and there on the same. First, I agree with Hon. Kajwang’ on the issue of governors giving out bursaries. I know they have particular cases where they give out scholarships. That can be accepted because of a specific issue. For example, maybe, one of the students is outstanding in an area, or is an orphan. I have seen governors give scholarships to students to go overseas for education, which is acceptable. However, giving bursaries is something that is misplaced. It is where misappropriation of funds for the community takes place. I know of cases where they are supposed to be building Early Childhood Development Education (ECDEs) centres, but not giving out bursaries. Hon. Speaker, I saw on the television, and maybe you also saw an argument by a Senator wanting to do away with the NG-CDF. I do not know what the said Member was up to. I will not mention his name. I do not know where he comes from or lives. Maybe, he resides in Nairobi and does not know what is happening in the village. Therefore, he wants the NG-CDF to be abolished.
