Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. In all intent, the Motion by Hon. Faith Gitau looks good, but for those who really have roads. In some parts of Kenya, they are talking about optimal operations – optimal yet we do not even have the basics in northern Kenya. People are talking...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. When we talk about social protection, what comes to mind is cushioning people from vulnerabilities—mitigating the risks they face and strengthening their ability to rebound.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. You have answered very well. I did not talk of intellect. I talked of illiteracy. He who did not go to 28th November 2024 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 50 a formal school is declared illiterate because he or she cannot read and write. Being an intellectual...
