"content": "Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to join you in welcoming students from Kongoi Secondary School. This school is special to me because I also schooled in Rift Valley, at Boron Secondary School. This school was our sister and brother school. It is, therefore, a school that I know well. The reason I have decided to contribute to the Communication by the Chair is because I know that place very well. It is a place of hardship, but I want to assure you that having come all the way to Senate today, you can also make it in life. Do not look at what is surrounding you and do not look at your background. With focus and determination, you can be anything that you want in life. I was at Boron Secondary School, which is not as prestigious as your school, but by the grace of God, I went all the way to the University of Nairobi, and here I am. If I made it, you can also make it. All the best to all that are graduating, all the best in your endeavour. I hope to have a photo with you after this session, because it reminds me of the journey that I have walked this far. God bless you."
