My brother is interrupting me and yet he has spoken three times. This matter concerns everybody in this country, both men and women. It covers statistical planning in education, agriculture and even where I sit as a Chair. I am happy and I am not speaking for the Government. When I requested for a Huduma centre to cover all the matters anticipated by the Motion, the Cabinet Secretary, a gracious lady, Prof. Kobia, responded swiftly. She just asked me to get a premise because she was ready. The ball is now in our court. I want to ask my brother ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I perused this Agreement when you gave us time. This is one of the best agreements that I have seen made by our Government with other governments.
