    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this very important Motion; 2010/2011 Supplementary Estimates. The reason I am particularly persuaded to support this Motion is because these particular estimates contain some areas whereby we are going to benefit, particularly my area, Makueni County and especially my constituency which is Kibwezi. My area, at the moment, is faced by severe drought, whereby my people are going without food. These particular estimates provide a budget for dealing with or supporting the relief food, water, construction of dams and other areas whereby my people will be able to survive through the drought period. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the estimates also contain infrastructure development to be able to support the development of this country and to keep up with Vision 2030. We cannot delay the passage of this particular Motion even for a day; we must pass it today. I am just urging my colleagues to pass this particular Motion today. By doing so, we will be able to get funds to complete the Economic Stimulus Package (ESP) programmes that are going on throughout the country. We will also be able to move very quickly and settle our IDPs. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, also, there will be adequate funds in the budget to deal with title deeds and other areas whereby our people will be able to benefit."
