"content": "We need to ask ourselves why somebody should imagine that something that is working needs to be altered or changed. There is fear among Kenyans that NG-CDF is going to be removed while there is fear among Members that in next Financial Year, 2026/2027, we will not budget for it. I want to appeal to our judicial system that we need to look at these issues more constructively, especially when it comes to the role played by different individuals in terms of delivering development. My final point is on the need to focus a lot more on the software as opposed to the hardware. For the hardware, I have in mind the constructionism while for the software, I have in mind things that make us turn around the results. For instance, when it comes to biological forms, genetic improvement in health, disease containment or control and in education, educating Kenyans appropriately to gain knowledge, those are some of the areas we need to give more focus. There is an inclination towards construction in this country. Apart from the new program on affordable housing, different sectors need to reduce a lot more on investing in infrastructural development. On infrastructural development, I have in mind construction of offices and other facilities so as to focus more on the software that will turn around this economy. If we have to turn around the economy, we have to be a lot more focused on the productive sector which does not demand a lot of resources.
