"content": "Thank you Temporary Speaker Sir, for giving me this opportunity. I support the Report by Sen. Johnson Arthur Sakaja, for his leadership, and the Committee. The Committee has been industrious and committed on many labour issues. When I was seconding an amendment introducing issues of the diaspora, I indicated that for the last two financial years, Kenyans from abroad have remitted more than Kshs780billion. It is the best foreign exchange earner in this Republic. It has gone beyond tea and any other foreign exchange earners that we get as a country. If this country was concerned about the diaspora community, we would even have a special directorate of diaspora issues, such as those Kenyans in the Middle East. In Nandi County, we have borne the brunt. I have attended several occasions where we have had to fundraise and bring Kenyans who have died in unexplained and unknown circumstances. The other day I was in a part of Emgwen Constituency called Kapkangani where they had lost their daughter working in the Arab Emirates. We must agree on how we can handle this. When you go to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport"
