    "content": "Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute to this very important Motion by Humphrey Njuguna. When you look at the funds that have been created in this country, they only cater for the women and the youth, discriminating against men who are already past 35 years. Out there, there are people who are still energetic and still need money, but this Government has decided to discriminate them in these funds. It is high time we gave out money to men between the ages of 35 and 50. This is prime age. People in this age have ideas and are innovative, but they lack funds. A fund that will cater for everybody will be very useful to grow this economy. Most of the people in that age bracket are very energetic and can work, but they lack funds. When the Government issues funds to certain categories without considering others, that becomes very unconstitutional. The Constitution of Kenya provides that nobody should be discriminated based on gender, race or age. The Fund, if created, will cater for this group.
