    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, also I wish to inform the House that as we empower KIRDI, we need to know who is better placed to manage this country in that route of empowering individuals from bottom up not up down. We need to ask ourselves who exactly is better placed. That is within everybody’s knowledge and is in the public domain. When we talk about a symbol like a wheelbarrow, we want a situation where this honourable House should sit and say how best it can improve it. Maybe by putting an engine so it can go uphill the way we put an engine in a bicycle and now it is a motorbike so it can perform better. If we really demean issues of party’s symbols, then we will end up demeaning the orange because we can only eat it. If we go the Wiper route, we can go far. So, let us not get deviated by party’s symbols and stick to where we are heading. Are we empowering research and the dealers of this world who are all over the place? Nowadays, our children admire the individuals who supply to Government institutions. They forget the university research assistant professor is doing a better job. We are glorifying dealers and thieves of KEMSA and so forth. We forget what we are supposed to be gearing our attention forward. So, I support the empowerment of KIRDI and all research institutes in Kenya. We need to make laws that can empower every institution that supports all individuals and hustlers from bottom to up. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
