    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support. The public service is the nerve system of this country. I would like to address diversity, distribution, inclusivity, values, principles and great virtues. We have 43 tribes in this country. It does not matter what tribe you come from. It is all about meritocracy, qualifications, performance, abilities and capacities. Allow me to comment on the Wanyore. My great bosses the late Wazir i Biwott and President Moi loved the Wanyore people because of trust and performance. The late Permanent Secretary Ambuka who happened to have been the District Commissioner (DC) of Elgeyo Marakwet District was promoted because of his performance. Today, 70 per cent of the total population of this country is composed of the youth. They do not have experience but qualifications. For the senior positions in this Republic, we should include people aged 60 years and above and 30 years and below. Age does not matter. As you age, the degree of greed is very low. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, you have told us about Karanja Kabange who was appointed at the age of 65 years because of meritocracy and qualifications. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
