    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for allowing me to contribute to this Motion. When I was elected in August 2022, I was very grateful to God, and I knew my work was to serve the people of Laikipia County. This is a cosmopolitan county with Pokot, Turkana, Maasai, Samburu, and Somali communities and Muslims. All these people, including the Kikuyus, came together and gave me their votes. The point that I first differed with His Excellency the Deputy President is when he started talking about Mlima. I realised that Laikipia County is not Mlima after all because in Mlima, people have running water from taps. In Mlima, people have tarmac roads. In Mlima, people do not suffer human- wildlife conflicts, but we have all those challenges in Laikipia County. The second point was the talk of 'one man, one shilling, one vote.' Laikipia County is among the counties with the least population. When you talk of 'one man, one shilling, one vote,' it means that you are talking of a reduction in resources for my people. I will not accept that. I remain a Kikuyu, but sadly, since our difference in opinion with His Excellency the Deputy President, I have been the poster girl of his intimidation, insults, blackmail, and The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
