Hon. Gitonga Mukunji urged the government to digitise fund disbursements, improve fertilizer and seed supply, achieve food self‑sufficiency and strengthen anti‑corruption institutions while increasing NG‑CDF allocations for education. Hon. Wanami Wamboka called for inclusive governance, equitable distribution of resources, and highlighted long‑delayed road projects in marginalized regions, urging the President to address regional imbalances. Hon. Njeri Maina praised the President’s brief speech, urged full access to subsidised fertiliser for all farmers and called for urgent action on youth unemployment, mental health and substance abuse. Hon. Hussein Weytan highlighted severe insecurity in Mandera, the lack of tarmac roads, inadequate pay for border police, and chronic poverty, urging the government to improve infrastructure, provide clean water, affordable housing and employment opportunities. Both members combined commendation with strong criticism of gaps in service delivery. Both Hon. Onesmus Ngogoyo and Hon. Irene Njoki opened their maiden speeches by congratulating the President, Deputy President and parliamentary leadership, then outlined priority areas for their constituencies. They urged greater transparency, environmental stewardship, affordable housing, universal health coverage, and accelerated infrastructure projects such as roads, water supply and support for small traders through the Hustlers Fund.
