    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me a chance to welcome Sen. Abdulkadir Haji. On my behalf and that of the people of Kajiado, I also congratulate and welcome him to the Senate. His late father, Sen. Yusuf Haji, was a well-known Senator by the people of Kajiado when he worked as a Provincial Commissioner (PC) for many years in the Rift Valley. He was valued because of his vast knowledge on issues to do with pastoralists. We are happy that the people of Garissa have extended that value to his son by giving him a chance to serve in this House. I wish him well and pray for him as he serves the people of Garissa. I urge him to look at policies and legislations that will help the people of Garissa and pastoralist communities as a whole. His father whom I used to sit right behind, where you are seated now, used to interact well with all Kenyans. He used to interact well with women and the pastoralist communities, especially when there were issues dealing with marginalized communities. He was rich in knowledge and could read quite a lot. I remember the last time we spoke with him before he became sick, we were looking at the boundaries of Makueni and Kajiado, where there is some dispute. He had a lot of knowledge such that even without looking at the books, he could tell a long history concerning our counties. We wish you well and thank the people of Garissa, especially the leadership of Garissa County and the family, for entrusting you with this responsibility. We also urge"
