The Speaker of the National Assembly, accompanied by a group of Members of Parliament, attended an important event hosted by Hon. Omar Mwinyi, the Changamwe MP.
The event was the inauguration of a state-of-the-art swimming pool, funded through the NG-CDF, benefiting public schools in Changamwe.
This facility aims to nurture swimming talents among the local youth.
“I ask you Hon. Members to expand the responsibility of the NG-CDF because in many counties you visit the noticeable projects like schools and other projects are done by the NG-CDF as compared to the county governments, as anything you do to strengthen the NG-CDF I will be with you,” said the Speaker.
During the event, the Speaker mentioned his long-standing friendship with Hon. Mwinyi and their connection to the late Vice President H.E Michael Kijana Wamalwa.
He emphasized the importance of the NG-CDF in supporting various development projects and encouraged Honorable Members to explore expanding its mandate, with his commitment to embedding it in the Constitution to reduce legal disputes.
“We must pigeonhole and protect resources to every development area,” said the Speaker.
The President, Dr William Ruto, was noted as a staunch supporter of the NG-CDF.
The Speaker called upon the people of Changamwe to support the President and pray for peace and unity in the country.
Furthermore, he expressed support for Hon. Mwinyi’s initiatives and urged MCAs to work on legislation for a pension plan similar to that of Members of Parliament.
Lastly, he mentioned a courtesy call from a Bi-Partisan team led by Hon. Kalonzo Musyoka and the Leader of the Majority party, discussing progress on issues related to Parliament.
He pledged to inform the President about local leaders’ engagement in the privatization of the port and the revival of the oil refinery, seeking their input.
You are a very smart individual!
