    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to discuss and expound the issues which in his Speech, the President made to this House. I must first congratulate the President for the bold move he made especially the Speech he gave to the nation. It was a Speech full of reconciliations and reconciliatory terms, full of humility and had a serious balance between what is going on now and what has been going on previously. Being the first Speech to this House on his assumption to office that was a Speech that I thought was worth congratulating, supporting and moving a step higher and making that dream come true. The President talked about several things. Other than the reconciliations, he also talked about the agenda he has for this nation. One thing I must appreciate is the health sector. Our country is ailing. When you look at the state of hospitals and the much people are spending on private hospitals, you will be shocked. I am happy the President touched on it and I believe that he will ensure that all that is implemented. His Cabinet Secretaries and county governments should implement that agenda and save our people from this plight. There is a cancer disaster in this country and those are the issues we need to be looking at. I would also want to congratulate the President on the issue of food security. Currently as we speak, there is a lot of rain in this country, but there is nothing being done. There is totally nothing the Government is doing to ensure that the water that we have from the rains is tapped so that it can be used for irrigation in other areas. We know that after the rainy season there will be a very serious drought and unless we have water, we will go back to the problems we had before. Lastly, I would wish to congratulate the President on the issue of reconciliation and the handshake. Just like everybody else says, we want to forgive those who have always crossed our The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
