    "content": "people we represent by making sure they continue to receive NG-CDF money. This is not money meant for the Member of Parliament. This is money that has made a difference in our constituencies. It is seen as if it is the Member of Parliament uses the money, yet the Fund is run by a management committee with a Fund Manager. Public service officers and the community monitor its use. We receive messages on our phones from students who are unable to sit their examinations, because they know NG-CDF money is meant for them and it can support them in their education. So, I support the Bill. If it were not for this money, most schools in my constituency would now have been closed for lack of toilets. The community knows they can get the money. We must make sure that we have quorum to support this Bill and the make sure this money remains with the people at the constituency level. I also support women on NGAAF. I sympathise with them because the area they serve is very huge, the whole county. I see Woman Representatives donating water tanks, tents and bursaries but the money they get is little. They still make sure the use of the money is felt in their counties. The money is not enough. More money should be added to the Fund. Women in our constituencies and counties feel the effect of this Fund. NG-CDF and NGAAF are meant for the people, not for Members of Parliament. We should come out in large numbers to get the quorum to pass the Bill. Thank you. I support."
