    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I also join my colleagues in saying that this Bill will not help any Kenyan. The spirit of harambee has been the fundamental cornerstone for this country with regard to development. It is only after the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) and the other funds came in when the country’s economy improved that people want to change the spirit of brotherhood. Harambees or fundraisers have created cohesion in this country. Most of the poor people came up and most of the students today as well as many of our professionals went for scholarships outside the country through harambees. Fundraisers and harambees have created love among the communities. It is only through sharing with the poor that we love one another. Madam Temporary Speaker, today, we cannot throw away the brotherhood that harambees have created. Almost 70 percent of people in this country are below the poverty line. They cannot even afford two meals in a day or pay school fees."
