    "content": "are seeing some of these things. Very soon, they will interpret what they are seeing and take action. The most appropriate action is to throw out this Government, which is not telling us the truth about some things, and especially corruption. This country will never develop while we still support and condone corruption, as we are doing now. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, all I see these days are people who are not humble. Some of the big people here in the Front Bench are not humble at all. In most cases, what we see is just a bossy brigade that comes out from their pulpit of arrogance and impunity which they preach to us when they should actually be humble. It is a very bossy brigade that goes out to preach arrogance and impunity when they should actually demonstrate humility. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on this question of teachers, let me say very frankly that some of our regions, for sure, have been marginalised since Independence. I do not want to talk about the colonial times. It is a pity that our real Government has marginalised some of our groups. In this teacher situation, for example, Narok District, today is short of 1,600 teachers. These are the people who need to be helped. These are the people who the colonialists did not build schools for. These are the people who need more teachers to be employed for them. The other day, I was shocked to hear the Minister for Education saying that Narok District performed so badly. How do we perform well when we have no teachers and when the inspectors cannot reach the schools because the infrastructure is pathetic? Some of our regions are used to being excluded from the distribution and allocation of national resources. It is unfair. This inequality is turning into inequity because we are ever not being given the right thing. The other day, I saw in the Budget something very interesting, that the Minister for Finance has put aside some funds to develop infrastructure in the Mara Game Reserve. Well, why did they have to delay the development of that infrastructure for the last five years when they know very well that it is the tourism industry that has spurred the economic growth they are talking about here? Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to support."
