    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, allow me to start by thanking all those hon. Members who have contributed to the Motion, who include the gracious lady, hon. Laboso; hon. Onyonka, hon. Kigen, hon. Chanzu, hon. Njuguna, Prof. Sambili, hon. C. Onyancha, hon. Lessonet, hon. Kinyanjui, hon. Samoei, Dr. Wekesa, Prof. Kamar, hon. Elmi, hon. Ogindo and, of course, the Government Responder, who is also the Deputy Leader of Government Business. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the proposed fund is realisable. I was just looking at the Estimates that were printed last week or so. They show that in the last one year, the Government, Non-Governmental Organisations and the private sector spent over Kshs50 billion on advertisements. A mere 2 per cent of this sum will be Kshs1 billion, which would be good seed money with which to start the proposed fund. Therefore, we are calling on the corporate world to be on the forefront in supporting this fund. I also wish to urge the Ministry of Tourism and the Brand Kenya Board to use our sports heroes to market Kenya. Finally, I want to say that never again should we watch helplessly as our pioneer Olympic gold medallists die in absolute squalor and misery in a general ward in a public hospital. With those remarks, I beg to move."
