Members in this House, great men and women who were democratically elected and who I would think have one thing and one thing only as their main goal, which is improving the lives of their people. My agenda shall, therefore, focus on the youth and women empowerment, agriculture and tourism all geared towards economic development in the great The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
