    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand guided. As I said, I made a disclaimer because I was not present when the Ruling was made. I will trust your better judgment and drop that matter at that point. The other issue is that the great County of Homa Bay hosted Madaraka Day. We also had debate on the nominees for appointment to the Independent Electoral Boundaries Commission (IEBC) who were approved by the House yesterday. Hon. TJ went into great length explaining how we have several Members of Parliament from Homa Bay, including the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury and Economic Planning, who used to sit with us. He was one of my tutors who taught me about the Finance Bill last year. However, I would like to send him some advisory notes as he prepares to come here to deliver the Budget Estimates for the Financial Year 2025/2026. He was here and he promised us Ksh52 billion. By the time Hon. Mbadi comes here, we do not want to make it uncomfortable for him. Let him come with the Ksh52 billion for NG-CDF as he delivers his Ksh4.3 trillion Budget. If we trust him with Ksh4.3 trillion, and I state on the record that we trust him with Ksh4.3 trillion, surely what is Ksh52 billion. Actually, the remaining amount is less than Ksh30 billion. I am sure he can disburse that as he delivers that Budget so that he can move this country forward. Hon. Temporary Speaker, with that, I congratulate the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee and tell them to keep up this work. Make sure it is always fair going forward. Thank you."
