    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also want to add my input on this sporting petition. I agree with the petition because exercise for any animal or human being adds life. If you look at those who do serious exercise, they keep fit, live long and sometimes they perform their brainwork very well. That is why I rise to support the petition. When you ingest food into the body, and this has become a petition in our country that we are bringing up a lazy nation. I remember in the 1980s and 1990s, people walked for long distances to go and do some duties. Nowadays, with the introduction of motorbikes in our country, people cannot even walk for one kilometre. They jump onto a motorbike even from a shop to their house, even a distance of 500 metres. So, I would wish that this is introduced seriously. When introducing sporting activities, we look at how to do these things. As you have said yourself, Hon. Speaker, dancing is also a sporting activity. But we must put a time limit on how long you dance. If you dance for a minute or one hour, or if you can dance with a partner, it depends on how you dance. It also burns human body which has serious adenosine triphosphate into adenosine diphosphate. It is through the action of exercise and sweating that you can release that and keep fit. You can see the people who exercise here on their face. You, Hon. Speaker, look like you do exercise. Hon. Kimunya and Hon. Dan Wanyama do very well in exercises. I suspect when you exercise, you do every work very well, not forgetting that sometimes we have nocturnal exercises which take place in darkness. It is also exercise. I may not know how to classify it. Every exercise that keeps the body sweating is good exercise. Thank you. I support the petition."
