    "content": "When we discuss the mental health, we must appreciate that it is a real issue. These are things that happen. You cannot fake them like when people advertise. They say if you use this toothpaste, your teeth will be white, which might be fake. Mental health is brought about by extreme poverty. We need a discussion on how we can eliminate it on our land because it is the major contributor. Husbands and wives fight in their homesteads because there is no food and money. Maybe your child has stolen Ksh50 that was meant for buying cooking oil. This is all over. You are told that you should not divorce. Issues of relationships like break-ups and someone writing a letter and saying that he cannot live without you and you disappear, bring about mental health issues. You start crying and stop eating. Depression is real. There is also the use of drugs. Some people say that they use bangi or take chang’aa because they are stressed. When he takes chang’aa in the evening, he relaxes and sleeps well. Having known that mental health is a real issue, we must treat it as such. How do we cure it? We need to create employment opportunities through farming to improve on food security. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I support the Motion and urge you to give one minute to Hon. Lilian."
