    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I join you and my colleagues in congratulating Sen. Ngugi on being nominated to sit among us in the Senate. I encourage him with two words. One, it is a privilege to serve and make a positive impact on the lives of the people that he represents in this House. Sen. Ngugi has been nominated to represent the youth category in the country. It is a huge population that feels left out in a lot of decisions about them. This is because some decisions are made about them without them. This is the House where important decisions are made. Therefore, Sen. Ngugi must be ready, willing and able to represent the voice of the youth in the Senate. He should not feel that because he is young, he must give way for other senior Senators to speak about other issues, and if there is time left, he can speak about the youth. He must fight for the space of the youth respectively, and within the Standing Orders and the Constitution, be able to seriously represent them in this House. Two, I would like to encourage him. This is a House of reason. For him to have gotten the opportunity to be nominated to the Senate, is one thing to thank God for. He should always seek God’s guidance in executing the mandate of the office to which he has been nominated. With those remarks, I welcome him."
