    "content": "Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. They should be as patient as I have been. I stand to support this Motion. The creation of a fund for men above 35 years of age is important. We are aware that we have the women and youth enterprises and even the Uwezo Fund. Those funds were created to take care of marginalized groups. But with time, we have noticed and we are concerned about the boy-child. When eventually the boy-child will grow to become a man, looking at our communities, we face the risk of losing men and youth. We are also losing the men who are in that age bracket that we are talking about. Therefore, we need to work on our men so that we can develop a culture of saving. I would like to congratulate women in our communities because they meet in women groups and practise the culture of saving. They have worked so hard to save some little money which they are able to use to do many things in the communities. Men need to embrace what the women have been doing and start saving and using the little money available to do great things."
