    "content": "(ii) the Restoration of peace, including resettlement of most of the Internally Displaced Persons; (iii) restoration of economic growth; and, (iv) institutional working Government that, more than any other Government in recent times has achieved what many thought would be impossible even the best of times. Working closely with the Executive, the Tenth Parliament has overseen:- (1) The biggest ever investment in the infrastructure development, with growth in roads, mobile telephony, energy and ICT standing out. (2) Investment in food security through irrigated agriculture in ones neglected places like Turkana. (3) Expansion of energy sources by investing in clean energy like geothermal, wind, solar and clean coal. (4) Poverty reduction measures targeting vulnerable groups, including cash transfers to the poor and elderly currently piloting in various parts of the country. (5) Expansion of free education to secondary schools and extending its benefits by providing sanitary towels to girls. (6) Liberation of Somalia from Al Shabaab as part of our obligation to ourselves and to the global community to name but just a few. The evolution of projects like the LAPSET, the Konza City and, above all, the promulgation of the new Constitution have been so grand that they could only have come from the era of big dreams that the Tenth Parliament and the Grand Coalition Government have come to represent. It is my hope that when the history of this country is written years later, with the benefit of hindsight, soberness and wisdom that comes with time, it will be more kind and gentle on the Grand Coalition and the Tenth Parliament than day to day reviews have been. Mr. Speaker, Sir, each of us is hitting the campaign trail soon, except for a tiny minority that has opted out of elective politics. I want to wish each of you well as you seek to recapture your current seats or new ones. I hope you too will wish me success and victory."
