"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with a lot of respect, I withdraw. I have spent the entire morning sitting next to the bullfighter. So, I believe he has infected me in a way. I hope that the bunch that is here will be our doctors, lawyers, software engineers in future. They shall be the ones providing solutions that this continent and globe faces as far as climate change is concerned. They will be the team that will take us to the metaverse and one that will carry Elon Musks ambition and that of other billionaires that there could be life outside this planet that we can explore and humanity can master the universe. I encourage the boys from Lenana School. The reason why it is called ‘Changes’ is because it changes people. They come in as villagers, but after four years they are refined gentlemen. I encourage them to change from villagers and not to think of themselves as Luos, Kikuyus and Kambas because this is a national school that admits boys from all corners of the country; that after four years let them see themselves as Kenyans. I cannot fail to say this is. Lenana is a school that has produced real men, not those other men who toss up and down. Real men. That is why Lenana was the best school when it came to rugby until the schools from western Kenya came along. The Students in schools in Western Kenya eat food like cassava, yams and starchy things for breakfast, while students of Lenana eat Yorkshire pudding and such exotic things. That is the reason why rugby moved from Lenana School, St Mary's School and Nairobi School and went to Musingu School where Sen. Sifuna attended. It also went to a few miscellaneous schools in Western Kenya on account of the diet that they take. I finalise by marveling that in this Parliament, I have met alumni of very great schools; Alliance School, Starehe Boys, Kenya High School and all the choice schools. I have met people from Yale like Sen. Oketch Gicheru. However, I am yet to meet in the corridors of Parliament - even though I meet them in the county assemblies’ corridors - someone from Nairobi School who has made it to Parliament."
