Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I will be brief. I want to take this opportunity to support this Bill. This is the Third Reading and we have been persuaded enough. We have cited biblical writings on the role of women and their social and cultural roles. We know women are equal performers as men. I would like this Bill to be passed so that Kenya can be at per with other countries. The women of Kenya will have opportunities to serve in the various leadership positions. We will also benefit from the decrease in number of nominated women both ...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to respond to the President’s Address on the state of the nation. It was a good Speech. However, I would like to express my disappointment on the Members of the Opposition for interrupting the Presidential Address. They were selfish and did not want Kenyans to listen to the Address. I am glad that the President composed himself and later gave his Address. The Address gave an overview of what the Jubilee Government has achieved in three years. Despite the complaints that he did not give details of the Address, I want to say ...

or the common man. The free primary and secondary school education has helped many families. Families face problems during registration of students. I am sure every household in Kenya has benefitted from the waived exam fees. It is not only benefitting Members of the Jubilee Government, but also Members of the Opposition. In fact, most children who benefit from this waiver of exam fees come from the western side of Kenya. We know that Central Kenya has fewer students because of the problems they had recently.

We have also benefitted from the technical training institutes that have been built. Every constituency in Elgeyo Marakwet County has constructed a technical training institute for the benefit of our youths. Our youths are not accessing employment opportunities because they lack skills. If we have technical training institutes and vocational training centres, our youths will acquire skills which they will use to seek employment.

There is also improvement in the health sector. We have free maternity facilities. Our mothers are accessing the facilities and they are enjoying it. More mothers prefer to give birth in hospitals as opposed to some time before when they were doing it at home. There is also the issue of corruption which is everybody’s problem. It is a problem in Kenya whether you are in the Opposition or in the Government, which is caused by individuals. Our President has done his best to make sure that those who are involved are prosecuted. I applaud him for that.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for this golden opportunity. I have been waiting the whole morning and I am happy you have recognised me. I support this Motion. A clean environment is very important for each one of us, the whole country and our neighbourhoods, especially in slum areas. Such neighbourhoods need this Motion, so that they can maintain their environment. A clean environment is very critical for such places because of the number of people who reside in those areas and the litter that is thrown around by the residents and passers-by. If we do not maintain a ...
