    "content": "Finally, I encourage Members to pay attention to the agricultural sector. Let us make it interesting for our young people to get into it. Young people have thought of agriculture as dirty and not “cool” but it is the “coolest” thing one can do. Before I got into agriculture, I thought of what I would be doing trying to “ kulima shamba” and all that, but the income that comes out of it and the results--- There is also the magic of putting something in the ground and it comes out as what God has given us. That is why today I am very proud as a farmer on top of whatever else I do that young people are getting into agriculture. Let us encourage them to get more into it and not just think of boda boda and the wheelbarrows that Sen. Omanga wants to give them. Let them try and engage meaningfully in making something out of tilling land. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I pray that this Bill is fastracked in the National Assembly so that it can become law and Sen. Wambua will have a Bill to his name. It is a very proud moment when one starts a legislation from scratch, it goes through the two Houses and is assented to. One will not be forgotten. I am proud of the kinds of Bills that are coming. Look at what Sen. Cheruiyot did with tea. Even though somebody might have tried to trivialize that as well, the market is already responding well to that legislation that has been passed by this House."
