    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me a chance to contribute to this very important Motion. Let me start by thanking the Mover of this Motion, Dr. Otichilo, for his continued commitment in bringing Motions to this House. This is a key Motion. It is very historic considering that we have had major complaints in this House and in the countryside concerning the latest census that was conducted. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, revenue collection is key to development of any country. We have seen countries fighting and the memories are vivid. In North Africa, we have had Governments already destabilized because of poor distribution of resources. Therefore, this Motion is looking for fairness and justice in the way we are going to share our resources. When resources are shared properly, a country gets stability and peace. Development projects are undertaken in the country. All the areas of the country will enjoy development in all the sectors. Hospitals, roads and even water in the country will be distributed properly. All areas of the country are represented by Members who are elected by wananchi . Members of Parliament are accountable to their own electorates. When an area is not properly represented, the leader becomes unpopular. Sometimes, the leader does not become unpopular because, in my view, the data being applied is not correct."
