"content": "Nandi County, UDA): Thank you very much Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me the opportunity to add my voice to this very important Motion on the Floor of the House. I appreciate Hon. Otiende Amolo and Hon. Chepkonga for the very thoughtful time and sentiments they have put together into this Bill so that, finally, the NG-CDF, the National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NGAAF) and the newly added Senate Oversight Fund can be entrenched in the Constitution. The NG-CDF and NGAAF for so many years have been facing a lot of legal challenges. And this is an opportunity to ensure that those legal challenges finally go away. We will also deal with ambiguities and make sure that people understand the structures of NG-CDF and NGAAF. It has come to my attention that many people, including the beneficiaries of NGAAF and NG-CDF, do not understand how the structure works. That is why we hear Members, especially the patrons of NG-CDF, saying that students text them on their phones. It is also high time that people in this country, including the beneficiaries and those people who run institutions and organisations, understand how structures work. The NG-CDF and NGAAF have a structure. Speaking of NGAAF, I wish people knew that there is a structure that runs it. Hon. Temporary Speaker, allow me to say that the people who have attached NGAAF and NG-CDF to Members of Parliament are not Members themselves. They are people outside there. In the structure, there is nowhere a Member of Parliament, who is a patron of NG-CDF, runs the The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
