    "content": "We must give hope to the marginalised groups who have been relegated to second-hand citizens of this nation. My voice is that of the people with disability because it traverses across the country. People living with disabilities look up to us to represent their interests. Those who advise the President on public appointments must properly guide him. People living with disabilities are just looking for 5 per cent of the jobs in the Government. By considering all groups, we will give hope to all the sections of the population. The CBK has been without a board for a whole year. It is time to approve these directors. Let us not just be a rubberstamp House, but we must approve appointments that meet the threshold of the Constitution. The Governor of the CBK is doing a good job. He has reined in rogue banks. We now have proper regulations from the CBK. By giving him an effective and efficient board, he will have teeth to bite, so that he can regulate a very important sector of our economy. I support, but we must not leave out a section of our population in public appointments."
