Beth Syengo","speaker_title":"","speaker":null,"content":"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I take this opportunity to congratulate and thank the Committee and the leadership of Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, the bullfighter. He has done us proud. We followed the proceedings and he did a marvelous job. I thank Kenyans and the Meru people who elected the Hon. Governor. I am happy as a woman leader that we have retained the number of female governors. In future, I urge Kenyans to elect more women because this will actualize the two-thirds gender rule. I know the Hon. Governor is a woman of God, she has learnt her lessons and she will do a fantastic job for the people of Meru. I thank you."}
