    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. My name is Hon. Leah Sankaire, County Woman Representative of the National Assembly for Kajiado. Before I make my contribution to the President’s Speech, I would like to make my Maiden Speech, since it is my first time to speak on the Floor of this House. I will make it short, precise and to the point, just like the President’s Speech. First and foremost, I would like to thank the Almighty God for the gift of life, family and more so, the gift to represent the great people of Kajiado County in the 13th Parliament. Like my colleague from Kajiado North, I was also a nominated Member of the County Assembly, the First Assembly of Kajiado; and that makes me a true model of the bottom-up model. Secondly, I would like to thank my family, friends and the people of Kajiado County from the five constituencies, namely Kajiado West, Kajiado North, Kajiado East, Kajiado South and Kajiado Central, for greatly trusting and enabling me to come and represent them here. I am humbled by the trust that you have bestowed upon me amidst other worthy competitors to represent you in this 13th Parliament. I am forever indebted and I promise that I will do my best in representing you by always raising and taking solutions to the issues that affect us directly or indirectly as a community in this House. I promise that I will do my best with the help of God. I am happy that all the promises we made to the great people of Kajiado County during the gruelling campaigns are all captured in the President’s Speech, and today I stand tall contented with the administration that I wholeheartedly and passionately supported. As the good book, the Bible, puts it, truly our expectations have not been cut off. I therefore want to kindly request you that we walk this journey together, patiently knowing that you are my business and the reason for me being here, and this I will not forget.
