    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I hope it is going to be peaceful. We take the word of Hon. Ng’eno. We are going home for this short recess. I do not think we are entirely happy as one of my colleagues here was trying to suggest. You cannot say that Jubilee has done very well and Kenyans are very happy; mothers are giving birth in hospitals without being charged when there are no doctors! Doctors are not at work in public hospitals to ensure service delivery. Where are the public hospitals that those mothers are giving birth to babies free of charge? There are no doctors in the hospitals. Lecturers are on strike. Everybody knows that lecturers are on strike and the Government has failed to ensure they get back to work. Everybody knows that so many projects have been launched more than three times. In Bungoma, I saw the road to Kakamega being launched by the Deputy President. It was again launched by the President in Nambacha. I think they will be planning another launch. I have seen other roads that were earmarked for construction. But they have not been constructed because Jubilee is not doing well. So, we would not like to hear someone rising up and saying… We have not received the funds. We are getting into a new financial year as we budget. We have not received funds in our constituencies for us to be able to undertake our services and deliver our mandate. We must get funds flowing. Hon. Deputy Speaker, we are talking about the security of Kenyans in the Rift Valley, specifically in Baringo and Turkana, where people are being killed every day. We cannot, therefore, be enjoying here and saying that the Jubilee Government is doing well and yet, Kenyans are dying! It is the responsibility of the Government to ensure the security of every Kenyan and their property. When Kenyans continue to be killed daily, we cannot laugh and say that the Government is doing well. It has failed in the delivery of its constitutional mandate of The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
