"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. First, every time I rise, the expectation is that I will speak for the marginalised people in this country. However, with regard to the EALA nominations list, I wish to highlight that the most marginalised group of people in this country turns out to be the youth. It is unfair for a sitting Senator to say that experience is required and that one should have sat in Parliament before in order to participate in EALA. I strongly refute that. I hope that Hon. Members will interrogate themselves and remember that these very youths who are seeking these positions have no experience, and next time, it could turn out to be their own children. I believe that whoever we are going to send to the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA) should be someone who is knowledgeable, eloquent, has a vast knowledge of the East African affairs and matters. They should understand the importance of discipline, aggressiveness and the value that the East African Community brings when we have a common goal that will consolidate our interests."
