    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to second the amendment to the Motion. As I support this amendment, I would like to allude to some issues that Ms. Mbarire has talked about. This is to do with how diverse we are in this country. I remember that in this House, we passed a Motion brought by Mr. Affey on rotational sitting of Parliament. We always pass Motions but we do not implement them. If we had implemented that Motion, went and sat in Turkana, we could have seen the problems in that place and we could have addressed them. If we could have gone to Marsabit, we would have known the challenges that area faces and we could have addressed them too. That is why we are saying that if Motions are passed in this House, then we have a responsibility to implement them. I just want to support the amendment by saying that we would like the Minister to look critically at the areas that were left out. We know that she cannot address all regions, all constituencies and all villages at a go. There must be a person who will feel that something was left out. That is why I said that the Minister must be facilitated so that she can reach many people and serve them. We appreciate what she has done. She has reached 2.5 million Kenyans and we thank her for that. However, we are saying that let us reach those we have not reached."
