    "content": "Pokot South, JP): Hon. Speaker, I thank you for giving me this chance. I want to join my colleagues in appreciating what nature did to you. Communities have their own way of appreciating their sons. Pokots, Europeans, Chinese, Indians and the entire world have a way of appreciating their sons. Allow me to, therefore, join my colleagues in appreciating nature that was done to you. You deserve it. That is not even the debate. We were here in the 11th Parliament. God has blessed us because our people allowed us to come back for a second term. Those of us who were in the last Parliament, that is when Hon. Justin Muturi’s leadership came out. It might be easy to say, but to be honest, this 12th Parliament might have been very easy for you and it is true. Maybe, it was made possible by the “handshake” or something natural might have happened to ensure this Parliament is easy to manage. The first Parliament was difficult to manage. However, even with those difficulties, you produced results that were required to be done for the people of Kenya. I want to tell you the truth, Hon. Speaker, you stood your ground and managed that kind of division that was in this country in the 11th Parliament. In addition, everybody liked you whether they were on this side or on the other side. Everybody liked you. That is why even the people at home also like you. Therefore, it is natural and we agree. You have even extended your assistance not only in Mount Kenya, but also in Pokot. I want to attest that if you are to come today to Pokot, we will also make you an elder. Even my colleague, Hon. Kamket, is not an elder when I am here. He cannot be. However, you are a person with a heart to extend all over the country. You have been in Pokot where even the people of Siakago do not know where it is. I want to tell them that you came and helped our people and it would be wrong for me not to speak about it. Outside the entire place, you have been in remote places which border Uganda which is our home. Therefore, you deserve it, Hon. Speaker."
