    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I also want to persuade my senior brother, hon. Ethuro that sitting in the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) committee just to see what is happening is something that one has a responsibility over because when you are going out there asking for the people’s support, you tell them that: “I want to change and bring development here.” How else would you bring development to your people if you will not preside over it and see what is going to be planned? That is what we are saying. We are not saying that you are going to perform the activities like protecting thieves and so on. No! That is not what it means. It means that you are going to see what is happening. That is why you have an oversight role in all the resources. When you approve the Government resources, the Member of Parliament has a responsibility to oversight what is happening. So, what we are saying is not that the Member of Parliament wants to go and implement projects. The Member of Parliament wants to see what is happening, how those resources are distributed, how projects are implemented and it is an oversight role by your sitting there. So, I am persuading my senior brother who has taught me to debate in this chamber to withdraw that amendment. ( Question, that the words to be left out"
