I would like to support the Motion and urge the Minister that what is being called for through this Motion is very serious. We are saying that as we implement the new Constitution, we will have a false start. It is just like a major race where some people are a kilometre ahead when others are at the starting point. How can we achieve Vision 2030 if the base is not standardised? In order to achieve this, we should forget the politics of it. We are calling for a scientifically worked baseline survey. This can purely be done by scientists who are none political. They are in the universities and around the world. They can take into account all the parameters, and capture all the issues. Thereafter, even if we talk about places which your brothers represent, and which have the lowest life expectancy, at around over 30 years, we will address such an issue as a nation. We cannot move forward if surveyors in Kajiado County just survey Kiserian and Ngong and conclude that that is the richest constituency. Mr. Minister, I thank you for your time. I call upon you to really make a difference. Forget about our political differences. Hon. Minister, I thank you for your time. I am calling upon all of us to really make a difference. Let us forget about our political differences. Yes, some of us are in KANU. Let us have a true baseline data and then we work from that point. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
