    "content": " Thank you so much, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I am a new Member. You remember I have been to your desk several times. I came here with the knowledge that any time I want to speak I will speak on the Floor of the House, but I have since learnt that resilience pays. That is why I am here. First, I want to congratulate you, like my colleagues who spoke earlier, on your election as the Deputy Speaker. We believe and trust in you and that you will serve us equally. I want to say many things. Congratulations to the Kenya Kwanza team and to the President. I congratulate and appreciate the great people of Chepalungu for having faith and trust in me. It has been a journey that started a long time ago. For them to have one of their own, a child born and bred in the same constituency being a Member of Parliament is a great achievement. I thank my party that sponsored me to this House. Against all odds, I am a Member of Parliament through CCM Party. You all know that there was a wave in the country. Nonetheless, the people of my constituency saw it fit to elect me as their Member. Our main aim to be here is to debate issues and to make progress. It is not about winning. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I want to make a few comments. I will try my best to be brief and stick to the point."
