    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute. This being our last Sitting, I would like to start by thanking the Almighty Allah for giving me an opportunity to serve my people of Isiolo North and the people of Isiolo North for electing me to represent them in the 12th Parliament. I also thank you for your guidance. There are several occasions when I had issues in my constituency and sought your guidance. That guidance came in very handy in how I approached the issues. Being a first term MP is not an easy thing to play one’s role in this House effectively. Because of the support from senior Members, a few of whom I am going to name, I was able to pick up quickly and be active in contributing to debates in this House which on many occasions were on matters touching on the welfare of my constituency. I would like to thank in a very big way the former Leader of the Majority Party, Hon. Aden Duale, who gave me a lot of guidance immediately we were sworn in. He encouraged me to be active, and gave me encouragement after each and every Motion I contributed to. I thank Hon. Rasso, Hon. Chachu and my sister Hon. Sophia here with whom we belong to the same Departmental Committee on Environment and Natural Resources. In a very special way, I thank my Members with whom we are serving in the Departmental Committee on Environment and Natural Resources. I thank my friend Eng. Nzengu of Mwingi North, our very able, considerate and third term Chair who has, through the Committee, been giving us a lot of guidance and helping us to look at some of the issues that are pertinent to my people. I point out, through the intervention of the Committee and my lobbying, how we extended 25 kilometres of clean water from Merti to a place called Korbessa. We covered five centres. People who have never enjoyed clean water since Independence are today having access to clean water. Three dispensaries and five schools have access to water. To my great people of Isiolo North, I want to tell you what I have learned in my first term, I have implemented. I appeal to them that because nothing is broken, please do not fix it. Give me another term so that I can perfect and do more for you."
