    "content": "Therefore, this should be given a priority. This is because many school-going children are not able to attend school, and business people who have borrowed money are not able to repay their loans; and they are suffering as a result of that. The sooner this happens, the better for our people. We should also prioritize the completion of stalled development projects instead of funding new projects. We should give a condition that we should bit fund new projects before old ones are finalised. This is the way to go. Madam Temporary Speaker, we know well that through the development projects in our counties, county governors and the executive are benefiting a lot. They come up with projects where they will also benefit as individuals. In fact, it has become a cash cow for people. Therefore, we should try to see how this can be managed in order to deliver our nation. Madam Temporary Speaker, if this can happen, then the idea of making Kenya an industrialized middle-income economy will be realised. As we all know, once that happens we, as a nation, will serve this region well because we are like the big brother. We are the people who give the way and guide others. Unfortunately, that is not what we are doing today. It is better for us to focus and support this Motion as much as we can so that Kenya can benefit. Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to support."
