    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to congratulate you for having been elected Deputy Speaker. I want to congratulate all of us who made to this Eleventh Parliament. I want to use this opportunity to thank the people of Chepalungu and the teachers of Bomet County for nurturing me to this position. I want to comment on the Presidential Address, and because of time, I want to be brief. In his Speech, His Excellency’s intention and agenda for the Government is well thought out. If I was the one, I would not have been able to write all the details because of time. In terms of education, a country that has focus for its development treats education as a key pillar. In terms of economic development infrastructure, the core issue of life, the President started with poverty, which is rampant in this country. Poverty has increased the crime rate in this country. I support the Address. I want to encourage the President and his Deputy, who are youthful because this country has been crying that we want to give a chance to the youth. I want to encourage them to prove this, so that in future other youths can be elected. I want to touch an issue which my colleagues have touched on, namely the issue of remuneration for the Members of this House. Outside there, I used to think that teachers are the only ones who have always gone to the streets to make their voices heard. Indeed, teachers work like hon. Members. I wonder how a monster was created by the Tenth Parliament, which has come back to frustrate the House. It is very shameful. Yesterday, I was shouted at, at the gate."
