    "content": "We recognize the recent statement by the President of this country on the reclamation of Migingo and Ugingo. It is important that faster action is taken to reclaim those two islands. The Ethiopian invaders in Turkana Central must also be evicted immediately, so that we can secure that area. We should not allow foreign forces to occupy any part of this country. Our waters are also threatened by piracy, insurgency and, therefore, shipping and maritime business is also affected. I wish to, in addition thank the international creditors, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Japanese and the Chinese for the way they have given roads to our country. It is, therefore, important that those loans are distributed properly in this country. I will take this opportunity to thank the Minister for Energy who, through REA, has done a commendable job in this country. We should not forget the Minister for Nairobi Metropolitan Development for street lighting in this region. Businesses have already increased. Employment has also increased and that should be the way forward. Finally, we urge our Government to make sure that our international debt obligations are well met and maintained. We do not want our Government to be threatened the way the Greek Government is being threatened. Most likely, a part of that nation may be taken away by international debtors. I hope that with a credible leadership, the Grand Coalition Government will take their position to make sure that all the resources that we get are fairly distributed in all the areas of this country. With those few remarks, I support."
