    "content": "The recent High Court ruling on CDF has brought anxiety and uncertainty to all parts of the country. As duly elected representatives of the people of Kenya, it is our duty to give leadership and direction on this matter to the Kenyan electorate who alone are the holders of the sovereign power in our country. It is my conviction that we would be failing in our duties if the true aspirations of our people do not form the primary agenda of the business of this honourable Assembly. First of all, I want to thank you and the membership of this House for granting us the opportunity to ventilate on this matter. If there is a matter which has gripped this country entirely at the moment, it is the matter of the CDF. Ever since its inception, just over ten years ago, he CDF has, in more ways than one, become synonymous with Kenya. So much so that the CDF today is no longer just a fund; it is a way of life in Kenya today. In fact, I want to believe that if there is a truly ingenious Kenyan innovation it has to be the CDF. In terms of brand names, as I sit here today, I think CDF probably is as more powerful a brand as Mpesa or even Safaricom. I cannot imagine any other brand The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
