We expected the President to tell us where we are, where we want to go and how to get to that point. On development, I expected him to touch on issues that are affecting Kenyans especially the marginalised areas.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I appreciate his stand on unity. However, there are projects which the President started when he was the Minister for Finance and up to now those projects are not complete.

In my constituency, Samburu East, there is an electricity line that was started when the President was the then Minister for Finance but up to now it is not functional. May be the people who were supposed to have given him the information on the ground did not do their work. There are many challenges in our constituencies. Constituencies are almost becoming impassable because of poor roads. The Equalisation Fund is not coming through. The President should have addressed the plight of marginalised areas.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. These elders are very important people in our villages. We even use their services when we have conflicts of boundaries and in areas where we have so many problems of insecurity. It is very unfair for the Government not to remunerate these elders. If you look at county governments, they have gone up to the village level and the elders engaged are being given some allowances, but the national Government, which is a larger government than the other ones, does not consider these elders. So, it is very important for us ...

Samburu East, KANU): Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to take this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. Drought in our constituencies, counties and the whole of Kenya is real. If our people do not have food and water, then it is a very embarrassing situation. As a man or head of your family, you will be unable to defend them in such circumstances. You will watch your children die since you can do nothing about it. It is only the Government which should come in and save the situation. I do not want to really associate this with ...
