    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to also join you in welcoming the visiting delegation from Zambia. It is an honour to have them. I have noted that they are on a benchmarking visit and it shows that as Parliament, we are doing very well. Welcome. This is the Pan-Africanism that we need to see exhibited in Africa. We need to work together and share common practices. We do not need to fly to United States of America (USA), France or any other country to benchmark. We need to encourage intra- exchange of best practices in Parliaments within Africa. I think we have a problem in Africa. We see things in sadistic ways and do not believe in our ability or capacity. I thank the delegation because they decided to visit the Republic of Kenya instead of going to USA, Europe or South America. They are specifically in the right House, the “Upper” House. This is the House of union. I know Sen. Maanzo is now in the right place; he was lost in the “lower” House. Finally, I also join you in welcoming our students and teachers from Prince Alex Mixed Day Secondary School in Tharaka Nithi County. We are proud of them. There once lived one of the best legislators in this House. The first Senate Majority Leader who later became the best Deputy Speaker, was from that county. The current Cabinet Secretary (CS) nominee for the Ministry of Interior and Co-ordination of National Government. That is Hon. (Prof.) Kithure Kindiki. You are in the right place."
