"content": "There is a lot of transformation in education. The NG-CDF is sponsoring 492 students in day schools across Laikipia West Constituency who previously could not go to school. When we would visit the villages, villagers would present cases of children who had been at home since their exam results were released. The children had been admitted to secondary schools but could not join the schools because they did not have money. The NG-CDF has helped such students who are now in school and are very happy. There is a lot of infrastructural transformation in our constituency and across the country. When we went for public participation, there was a very big turnout in my constituency because people are happy with what the NG-CDF has been doing. I am very grateful. In our counties, a lot of money has been received. However, Senators who are supposed to conduct oversight have faced constraints as is the case in my county. It is a very vast county. It has three constituencies, but it is spread out widely. Moving from one corner to the other to inspect the projects being implemented by the county government is a major challenge. This Fund will enable the Senator for Laikipia and others to travel across their counties and provide the necessary oversight. With those few remarks, I support."
