"content": "Thank you very much Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for the opportunity. Allow me to congratulate the Member for Lamu County. She is speaking for many of us. The zeal and determination that we had in fighting malaria should be the zeal directed towards diabetes. Diabetes is killing our people just like cancer and many other diseases. I urge Members of Parliament to take diabetes, cancer, HIV and AIDS and malaria as serious issues in this country that find favour within our campaigns. It is true that diabetes and cancer, which are diseases that were traditionally for the rich and the royalty, are now affecting the poor people in the counties. The rich and the poor are not spared by diabetes. We are talking too much. It is time to act because diabetes will kill this country. I support the Member because she is speaking for so many of us. If we are not infected, we are affected, just like with disability. People are amputated due to diabetes. When someone’s hand or leg is amputated, it is because of diabetes. They become disabled.
