"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me join my colleagues in congratulating His Excellency the President for the good Speech. In particular, let me congratulate both him and the former Prime Minister Raila Odinga for the good handshake. That handshake has really shaken the country into positivity. I congratulate them heartily for that. This also resulted in the excellent Speech the President gave. Let me refer particularly to housing. It is very essential to human life. While on it, I want to refer to the havoc floods caused in Karachuonyo. Many homes and houses have been damaged and people are suffering. Some sleep in schools and it does not augur well for them. I ask the State to come to our aid. We are trying as a part of the community, but the problem is overwhelming. I will be very grateful to the nation if we can be assisted so that these people can have houses to sleep in and have food. On food, the Government has done its best and I congratulate the CS for Devolution. He has done wonders by giving us food but still that is not enough. Because of this, I request for cash transfer to the seriously affected families because, indeed, they are suffering. This goes hand in hand with health. Where you do not have good housing and floods are prevalent, health issues come up. I request that dispensaries and health centres are built in every sub-location. We need them.
