    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity to stand up and support this Motion of Adjournment. I think we have also agreed that this is the right time for all of us to take a break and, indeed, make a difference in what we are going to be doing between now and 28th September, 2010. Therefore, I stand to support and say that having gone through what we have just gone through in the campaigns, including all the truths and the lies, it is time that we went back to the country and made it come together. I am looking forward to when I will be invited to the Rift Valley and be able to do the work that some of the hon. Members have been asking me to do. I will now do the work that some of the Members have been asking me to do and I look forward to that. I think what we have before us is not an easy task because there is time now to educate our people and give civic education to all Kenyans. We have all been saying how people are marginalized, and pointing out what the Government has not done. But now there is work that will be done because there is enough for all of us, looking at the kind of resources that will be going down to the people through devolution. I think this is something that will give some work to all of us to do. Meanwhile, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is also what we need to do with our education. Our teachers have just been posted. I think all these teachers who have been posted, some of them are still not sure that where they have been sent is where they want to go. I am talking about my own constituency where the teachers who had applied are not the ones who are being brought there. Much as we are not trying to talk about who comes to our constituencies, people are still looking at their own people being sent to their own constituencies. I think here the Minister will be able to look at whether this may be happening also in other constituencies. I beg to support."
