    "content": "Allow me to thank the President of the Republic of Kenya. One, I thank him as the President and two as the leader of the Jubilee Party. As the President of the Republic of Kenya, he decorated me with the Chief of the Order of the Burning Spear (CBS) (First Class). Through you and your recommendation, he really did well to me. I do not take it for granted. On behalf of the people of Navakholo, allow me to thank the President and you. As the Leader of Jubilee Party, I must thank His Excellency Uhuru Kenyatta for giving me the nomination and appointment to serve in this House as the Majority Whip. I serve in this House on behalf of the Jubilee Party. I really thank the President as the Party Leader. Allow me to thank the Jubilee Party for allowing me to be in this House. They gave me the ticket. I served honestly and diligently until today. As we go into the election on 9th August, I have said that I will cross over. I will vie through the ODM. I thank the Right Hon. Raila Odinga for coming up to my village to give me the ticket and show the people of Navakholo that I now belong to ODM. Hon. Speaker, allow me to thank my colleagues whom I served with in the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock in the beginning of the term as their Vice-Chair and a Member of the Regional Integration Committee. Later on, I joined the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. I must thank Hon. Muturi Kigano who is my Chair. I thank Hon. Kanini Kega who is my Chair in the Budget and Appropriations Committee. I also thank you, Hon. Speaker, as the Chair of the House Business Committee (HBC) where I serve. You have really been of great help. You showed me how to organise a House to move on."
