    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity to contribute to this very important Motion. You have given me a chance to speak as a Back Bencher, and also as a spokesman for the FORD(P) in this House. I would like to thank His Excellency the President for giving a very nice Speech. Why do I call it nice? That Speech was not political. That Speech tried to address issues affecting Kenyans - poverty, unemployment, corruption and a new Constitution. I know that some of my colleagues may want to play politics with that Speech. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, has this Government delivered? Yes, to some extent! Coffee farmers in my constituency, for example, are now happier than they were four years ago. Those farmers used to get Kshs3 per kilogram of delivered coffee. That payment would be done two years after delivery. Today, those farmers are paid Kshs20 per kilogram within three months. That is something that the people of Kitutu Chache Constituency and, I believe the people of Gusii Land, appreciate. 36 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES March 21, 2007"
