"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I stand to strongly support this Motion by Hon. Kamket. It has come at a good time when it is raining in the whole country and the negative effects are being felt. I am sure even the marginalised areas are feeling them much more. The Fund was established because of very good reasons. Among the key issues that were supposed to address are health, poverty, infrastructure and education; these are historical challenges that have been there which were even addressed by the first President of this country. Indeed, given the time from when we got independence up to now, we are not supposed to be in the state we are in. The former regimes deliberately made some areas encrypt with poverty. As a result those who thought of coming up with this Fund realised this was the only way they could mitigate or bridge the difference between the developed areas and marginalised ones.
