The bursary...

Hon. Jackson Lekumontare (Samburu East, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for this time to add my voice to this discussion. The CBC, which is now our education system, is almost lacking in everything. Since we started this CBC, our children have been in schools without teachers. The CBC was meant...

Hon. Jackson Lekumontare (Samburu East, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support this Report. As other speakers have said, disability is not inability.

Hon. Jackson Lekumontare (Samburu East, KANU) Hon. Lekumontare.

Hon. Jackson Lekumontare (Samburu East, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for this opportunity. I join my colleagues in supporting this Bill. NG-CDF has touched the lives of very many people, more so in areas that have been marginalised for a very long time. We are almost at par with...

Hon. Jackson Lekumontare (Samburu East, KANU) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for this chance. I also want to support this Motion.
