    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to seek your indulgence. We have just one week to the close of business of this House this year. I note that the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) and maybe the National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NGAAF) have not received the last batch of money that was supposed to be given in the last financial year. We are already in the second quarter of the 2024/2025 Financial Year. Part of that money was meant to be used for the construction of the Junior Secondary School classrooms for Grade 9. With your indulgence and support – you have done this in the past – you can find a way of getting the Treasury to explain to us when this money will be availed to the constituencies, so that these classrooms can be built in good time. We are already halfway the 2024/2025 Financial Year and we do not have this money. I know in the next one week or so, we will be discussing other revenue raising measures. It is important that the Treasury comes clean. Why can it not give the NG-CDF money it has already raised, so that we can construct classes and in January children can be in school without a problem. I am just asking for your indulgence. Please, establish in what way you can help us. You did it in the past and it helped us."
