"content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to oppose the Motion. As I listen to Members contributing for and against the Motion, the more I am convinced that we should not adjourn the House. The reasons given in this House today for its adjournment is that Ministers want to go and do or supervise some work in their constituencies. We hear that the Minister for Energy was given a lot of money and the Minister wants to go and implement projects. I am really surprised and it is unfortunate that the Ministers can only work when we adjourn the House and not vice-versa . I thought that the Ministries have their technical and support staff like engineers to work and address these issues. They should render services to Kenyans even if we are in session. That is the reason why some of us are really advocating for technocrats to serve as Ministers in this country, so that we have Members of Parliament serving in their constituencies."
