"content": "from, 75 per cent of the constituency gets very little rainfall. Seventy five per cent of the constituency is not good for arable farming. In fact, without irrigation we cannot realize any agricultural development in the bigger part of the constituency. That is why I support that the constituency be the focal point for distribution of funds. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, when the colonial government took over our prime lands, they pushed people to my constituency, so that they could be finished by malaria. It is likewise for Suba people, who inhabit my constituency. When that could not work, they pushed them further to hon. Ng’ongo’s constituency. Luckily, the tsetse flies that were in Suba Constituency could still not finish them. We need the Equalization Fund in my constituency, so that we can develop. Finally, I want to join hon. A.B. Duale in praying that one day we shall have a president or a deputy president from the marginalized communities of our country. I want to pray God of all creation that even Sigowet/Soin Constituency shall one day produce a president or a deputy president. Thank you."
