Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Quickly, I also want to say that the Speech was good. My prayer is about implementers or handlers to whom authority is bestowed to do their work. I hope they will do it because we must strike a balance in a country of people with malnutrition and others who look well-fed. The President mentioned so many crucial things in his Speech. I come from Busia where sugar companies are dwindling or going down. They are closing down because of poaching. This has come from delayed and poor pay. I hope this is the end of ...

The President also mentioned building a few sports academies. I happen to be a member of the Departmental Committee on Sports and Culture. This has been on for over a decade. I hope the sports academies will finally roll out this year because we no longer want to call the President a liar.

There is employment of young people and certain things that have been happening. I hear some people have been taken abroad to work. We need the Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs to publish the data yearly. Let us know how many people from every region have been employed or benefited. We need to know how many women and people living with disabilities have benefited. Generally, it is just about striking a balance so that we do not feel like some bigger tribes are better or more dominant.

There were so many other promising things in his Speech. I have heard one or two people say they have been treated without pay or being asked to pay in hospitals. I hope this is happening across the nation. I also want to try to testify if this is happening. We lack people who talk good about what has happened through this regime. That is why so many Kenyans are asking where exactly this is happening. Where is this good happening? We need to see and verify where exactly these things have started rolling out. We will say no to ...

Thank you. I was there and witnessed. I was challenged to get more committed. We were in Berlin watching people living with disability playing smart, slowly but surely, get more medals than people without disability. When I came back, I realised that all of us are disabled. We are living with disabilities. Even those people with spectacles including our Hon. Speaker, if we take those spectacles from you, you will struggle to read.

The point is how we look at people, describe, call and discriminate them simply because they have challenges. That should not make us define and deny them chances. I will support anytime there is an opportunity in offices, houses, and let people with disabilities give all they have. This is because they might only be disabled because of an organ, maybe a hand, leg or intellectually, but there is something they showcase or offer to be part of a solution in our country. When I witnessed that, I realised that our institutions in Kenya, schools, homes and even offices do ...

I hope one day this country will wake up and do something for the sake of people living with disability. Thank you.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I like this Motion that was moved by the Woman Representative (mama county) of Laikipia County. It is time to end the KP monopoly. The President should open this company up for competition so that we can have affordable bills. At the moment, parents are not able help their children to do homework appropriately because they switch off electricity prematurely before finishing homework. Also, the unreliability of KP is very annoying. If you are an investor, you cannot be attracted to invest in this country because one minute there is electricity and the next minute ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker for welcoming the guests from Tanzania. I also want to take this opportunity to welcome Prophet Rolinga and his entourage. Hon. Members who may want to go for prayers, he will be in Charter Hall from tomorrow until Sunday. Thank you, Hon. Speaker.
