    "content": "Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir. First, I apologize to my brother the Senator for Bungoma, Sen. Wafula Wakoli. This is because I had made a public commitment to walk him down the Senate to take his oath, but I am sure he understands why I was not here. I was committed in other duties of this House. I take this opportunity to congratulate my brother and welcome him here. As you know, my rural home is in Bungoma. I congratulate the Senator, who is now my father and mother’s Senator at home. We welcome him to this House. We know that he has very big shoes to fill. Mr. Speaker, Sir, over the Christmas period, I am sure the Senator is aware that there were many issues regarding some of the results from some of the schools in his county. People were reaching out to me, but I told them that they have their own Senator, who is capable and up to the task. I am sure he will take up the pleas of Moi DEB School regarding their results with the Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC). I have no doubt that in these colleagues of yours, you will find necessary support for you to undertake your duties. I am also very proud because he is a young man. Whenever we see young people progressing and coming up in leadership, we see a great future for this nation, because we see the regeneration of leadership in this country. Welcome to the House, Sen. Wakoli."
