    "content": "I take this opportunity to thank the Almighty God for giving you this opportunity. I come from the furthest corner of this nation, Turkana County. In that County, there are so many extreme challenges. However, with the confidence that we have in you, we will try our level best to make sure that those challenges facing the northern part of Kenya are resolved. I take this opportunity to thank all Senators who were elected in their respective places and area and counties. I also thank the Deputy Speaker who is my friend. We have been with him for two terms in the National Assembly. With the experience we have from the National Assembly, we will support the Senate, so that it becomes an ‘Upper House’ and not the ‘Lower House.’ I trust you and the people I represent also trust you. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this Senate is just like a polling station with 67 Members. Handling a polling station is very easy. Personally, I take care of over 300 polling stations. I have confidence in you that you will take care of the welfare of these Senators. As you take care of us, we will be sure and have confidence that the citizens, we represent will automatically be taken care of because Senators have been taken care of. I congratulate you and pray that God will give you enough grace and wisdom to represent and support this House."
