"content": "District Officers when we were young and he is an example of those with vast experience in the Civil Service. When it comes to the ages of these appointees, in view of what Hon. Omulele said, everyone is entitled to the benefits that a country can give. The youth have their role, and so do the old. Experience is an important factor when it comes to ambassadorial positions. This country is big and has the resources that if well utilized, can cater for both the youth and the old. Hon. Speaker, countries like Sudan and Israel require ambassadors who have worked in the military or the Intelligence Service because they are always at war. The previous Ambassador, Amb. Leshore; was from Samburu and had experience in the Army and the Intelligence Service. He was recalled because his term of four years had expired. I hope the next Ambassador will also be someone with experience in the military because of the war situation in those countries. The list is balanced but I want to state that some of us from Samburu are used to getting ambassadorial positions, but we have been left out in this appointment. We had an ambassador in Canada whose term expired because of age. I want to ask the President to consider us in the next round of appointments so that we can fit in the map of Kenya. We do not object to his appointment, but we want to ask him to consider us. I support."
