 of international development partnerships at both the Deputy President's Office and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, complete with budget lines where the National Treasury also runs an internal resources department. At the same time, you need to stop duplication of the world functions at national level. You have a situation where the National Government is competing with the countries in several other functions. Countries which are constitutionally devolved, like health, agriculture, water and so on. Why should the National Government be the one procuring fertilizers and distributing it to the health government when agriculture is devolved? How about drugs and so on? A few weeks ago, the control of budget to the country, the National Treasury overbudgeted salaries of 10 officers, including hands, by three times, leading to the loss of over one billion shares. The control of budget details of the Treasury has been over budgeting salaries of senior government officials through the consolidated farm services. So far, nobody has been made to bear the responsibility for this budgeted corruption. No very well has begun authorities to duplicate county functions where it will attend them, complete with budgets. To those doubting Thomas' within the regime, these measures above will release the estimated 500 billion shillings required to bring back the economy and an even king. Realistic debt management. Currently, Kenya is caught in a debt or debt charge where it has resorted to borrowing more to repay debt. It makes no sense to us to borrow more to repay debt when debt is already too high. It amounts to digging when you are ready in a deep hole. Our position is that the National Treasury ought to ask creditors to push up payments falling due to our future debts rather than keep paying it. This is what people do when they have a crunch in their finances, but now they can pay later when their income is higher. The shillings debt is not at the same time as the same thing as debt defaults. People default when they are bankrupt. Kenya is not bankrupt. Kenya should not default. But in shillings debt payments falling due, the government can forego creating taxes and create room for critical social and economic spending. In conclusion, while we are on since the inception of new government, this is the time to restate the economic policy broadly. And you don't have to go ahead and say this broadly by mere utterance, by talking and making promises to the people, empty promises. The effectiveness of government by key initiatives, including the heart of funds, should be reviewed by a forum comprised of the government, political parties, the business community, and the civil society. This is what should be happening. And if this happens, you will be able to come up with a proper solution to the problem that you are facing today. The government today is living in denial. If you listen to the State of the National Address yesterday, if you are talking to some people who are living in the planet Moon, they are not being realistic to the problems of this country. This problem might be confronted, not by trying to be in the directions here and there. You have said today that the cost of living is clear and it's killing the people, which has to be addressed if you are going to utterly relive the plight of the people of this country. This is our position as a meal. Now finally, Madame, you've written there Pralodinger ran for presidency five times and lost five times. And each time you complain that you did not lose. I accepted losing elections in 1997. I said I had lost and accepted. In 2007, the jury said there, everybody knows what happened. In 2013, everybody knows. In 2017, people know. In 2022, the seven of you are out in the country. The so-called independent electoral body commission, not seven commissioners. I'll go seven commissioners. Four said no. Three of the ones who said yes. Four said no. And they even have come before the Kanonzo team and have said no. And they have said that the chairman heard that after now he has not published the results of the elections according to the law. And to me, they say that four is bigger than three. The majority say that I won the elections. I cannot say I lost it. In respect of what the Supreme Court said. I thank you very much.
