I really wanted to thank our President for coming up with this Report and giving it to us as leaders of this nation. I was thinking he has worked very hard to help us, especially with the fight against illicit brews and gender violence. For example, somebody yesterday removed the clothes of a young woman. A man and a woman were fighting and people just watched them instead of calling the police to find out if any of them had committed a crime, so that action could be taken in accordance with the law. We also have the two-thirds gender rule that we have not complied with. We are not co-operating as men and women of this nation to help our youth, women and old people. We have not been able to work together as a team in order to reduce corruption and take services closer to our people. We have to help the President accomplish the Government’s agenda. There are people who keep a lot of cattle, and who are food-insecure. Right now, those who have a lot of resources should share with those who are dying of hunger and malnutrition."}
