    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to add my voice to this debate as I applaud the speech by His Excellency the President of the Republic of Kenya, Daktari William Samoe Ruto. In all the things that the President pronounced himself on, he collectively reflected on a more accountable, inclusive, and economically stable country. This country has people with reservations on what is going on. It was clear from His Excellency that a number of things are moving on smoothly. On the economic stability of this country, His Excellency highlighted that inflation has dropped from 9.6 per cent to 2 per cent. If you go to our shops today, that is evident. The prices of common commodities that we use on a daily basis like unga are now affordable. Therefore, this is a clear reflection that inflation has been contained. On the Adani deal, this is something that was being canvassed by almost everyone. The deal never worked very well as had been anticipated by the country. There is no way we can stop supporting projects that improve our development. The face-lift of our airports is long overdue. If you go to other countries, for example, Singapore – we say we were at par with them during Independence – when you arrive at its main airport, you realise that everything runs seamlessly. Therefore, I want to encourage improvement of the existing facilities. I urge the President’s advisors to do due diligence before coming up with the next investor who will take care of our airports. We want our airport to be a nerve centre that will serve East Africa and the entire Africa the way we get proper services from other countries."
