    "content": "Thank you hon. Speaker. We are still learning how to use these new devices. My name is Gikaria from Nakuru Town East Constituency. First, of all, let me say that I rise to support this Motion brought by hon. Koyi on how to assist parastatals. If you look at Nakuru, we have one parastatal by the name Pyrethrum Board of Kenya (PBK); it has been brought down to an extent that reviving it is a big problem. We think that the only way we can support the revival of that parastatals is by the Government coming in to assist. Of course the Government has given a lot of money to the Pyrethrum Board of Kenya to try and bail it out of the debts it has. Hon. Speaker, I want to support the Motion by saying that if, indeed, the Pyrethrum Board of Kenya is, indeed, bailed out by the Government, it is going to address the issue of unemployment, especially among the farmers, the flower pickers and the transport industry. There will be a lot of people benefitting out of the pyrethrum parastatal if it is revived. I want to say that it is a noble idea brought by hon. Koyi, and we should be able to support parastatals."
