    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this very important Report. The NG-CDF, as has been said by other Members of Parliament, is the most effective way of developing grassroots in this country. The structure is such that there is a project management committee for every project which is undertaken by NG-CDF. There is also a board. At the same time, there is a fund accounts manager who is employed in every constituency. Unfortunately, in the last election most of the funds accounts managers thought they were popular enough and went to try their hands in politics. Unfortunately, before you join politics you have to resign. That explains why a lot of constituencies share funds accounts managers. For example, the farm accounts manager for Makueni is also the one working for Kaiti which is a neighbouring constituency. Many other funds accounts managers are in a similar situation, as was witnessed in Kisumu County. They are being overworked by handling other constituencies’ duties. For that reason, they may not handle one constituency effectively. I believe the board will soon recruit or give an opportunity to some of those who went to try their hands in politics but were unsuccessful to come back so that they can continue the good work they have been doing as funds accounts The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
