    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to say something on the Anti-Doping Bill, 2016. It is well on track and Kenya is not at risk at all. Those discouraging the sportsmen and women of this great country should support them instead, right from their village levels. Having come from Uasin Gishu, the home of many athletes and city of champions, I want to thank the President for always supporting our sportsmen and women, especially the athletes. The agency will realign sports policies to that of international standards for the good of all participants, as well as their wellbeing and health of all our athletes. The President has been supporting our athletes and we really thank him. I want to urge Members of the 11th Parliament to support all our athletes and other sportsmen and women so that they can protect their images and integrity. The President is very committed. I want to assure Members that from history all our athletes in particular have the strength and ability to run all their races nationally and internationally. They are heroes and they are all committed. Those criticising, like Hon. Kalonzo Musyoka in one of his statements, should stop and encourage them instead. They have put Kenya in a good position on the world map. Those asking queries on stadia, the Government is still raising money to build the five stadia in this country. On education, the Government has increased capitation and grants to primary and secondary schools. On road networks, the Jubilee Government has completed most of the projects that were started by the Grand Coalition Government. For example, in Uasin Gishu County, Ziwa Road has been completed by the Jubilee Government. I want to congratulate the President. Let us all support Government policies other than criticising. Let us all be solution makers but not criticisers. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
