    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, my names are Mr. Wilfred Moriasi Ombui, Member of Parliament for North Mugirango Borabu. I stand here to support the Bill and at same time give my maiden speech. I take this opportunity to thank the people of North Mugirango Borabu for granting me this opportunity to serve them in this august House. At the same time, I thank the Gusii Mwalimu Sacco Society, where I grew up to this level. Because of the confidence of the members of the community and the teaching fraternity, I was able to be elected as the Member of Parliament for North Mugirango Borabu. At this time, I will also thank the members of my family for giving me ample time of going round to look for votes, and at the same time assisting me in all ways possible to capture the seat. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I come from a constituency which is in problems right now. We have more than 7,000 Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs). These are people who have been displaced from several places and have nowhere to go to. I take this opportunity to request the Government to ensure that these people are settled. The Temporary Deputy Speaker (Prof. Kaloki): Order, hon. Member! I know that you are trying to make your maiden speech. But I gave you time to just make it very brief and contribute to the Bill which is on the Floor now."
