    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to comment on the President's Address. The President addressed the nation in a precise and straight-to-the-point manner. He touched on issues that are affecting many Kenyans. In short, the President elaborated more on the problems Kenyans are facing, one being our education. Since the inception of CBC, I have had a problem understanding the curriculum. I battle with the shortage of teachers and materials. The President mentioned that his Government has made efforts to sort out the problem. Secondly is the issue of teachers. As a country, we have a huge population of school- going children. The President elaborated and shared with the nation his plan on how he intends to equip the education sector, the efforts that he has already made by employing 56,000 teachers, and an underway plan to employ more next year. Kenyans have suffered in matters of health care since independence. Consequently, the President told the nation that he intended to make an unpopular decision, but that would solve the problem that had been affecting us for a long time. On the issue of the economy, he touched on the stabilisation of our shilling. About three years ago, the Kenya Shilling against the US Dollar was so high. We risked going in the direction that many African countries have gone before."
