    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. With nostalgia, I remember Hon. Duale during our days at Moi University. For those of you who have interacted with Hon. Duale the politician, and Hon. Duale the student, they have always been the same. For those who have gone to Moi University; if you go to Ngeria section and ask for the cottage where we used to occupy, you will be told that that particular street used to be called Keynan-Duale Street. I pride myself as a first Member to be elected to a public office as alumni of Moi University. Hon. Duale has always been courageous. There are test-tube politicians and self-made politicians. Hon. Duale is a self-made politician. On behalf of the North Eastern Parliamentary Group, where he has been the chairman, I hope he will accept to be our patron now. He has also been the patron of the Pastoralists Parliamentary Group. I hope he will accept to continue in the role. I want to thank His Excellency the President. In Northern Kenya, the military plays a very important role. I hope Hon. Duale will entrench both military diplomacy and parliamentary diplomacy. Transiting from the first arm of Government, the Legislature, to the second arm of Government, the Executive, I am sure you have a lot to share and you will be the best role model to your colleagues. I know other Moi University alumni like Hon. Kindiki Kithure, with their intelligence and experience, will emerge as the best Cabinet Secretaries in the Republic of Kenya. I have been Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations. I midwifed the Military Act and I understand that particular docket. We wish you well."
