    "content": "need to embrace. As Senators, we need to be champions of enrolment into NHIF. I wish to reiterate that every day, week and month we have citizens asking for assistance to settle hospital bills. It is our role to embrace enrolment to the NHIF. We should encourage most citizens, if not all, to register with this fund. This way, we can offset some of the bills without having to conduct harambees . Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the President also asked the Judiciary to remain focused and uphold its highest standards and integrity. It is very important for this arm of the Government to remain focused and know its mandate. The Judiciary, as an arm of Government, needs to uphold its standards and conduct. In the recent past, we have seen the Judiciary somehow being compromised. However, I feel like the President from his speech was asking the Judiciary to look back at its mandate and why it is one of the arms that the Government relies on to deliver. It is on this note that the President asked the Judiciary to uphold its integrity and make sure its role is not interfered with. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, lastly, I would wish to applaud the President on the issue of peace, especially when it comes to security. In most cases, insecurity interferes with our economy. Many counties have been destabilized economically by cases of insecurity. We need to embrace peace and security in this country. Security is one of sectors that need to be equipped and financed because it is in dire need. Many counties in the former North Eastern and the Coast provinces have suffered instability yet they contribute a lot to the economy of this country. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for allowing me to contribute on this. I rest my case. Thank you."
