"content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I join you in welcoming the visiting delegation from the British Army. I am a big fan of the poetry works of Rudyard Kipling. I love the way he refers to them as “‘Tommies and Bootnecks’. It is good to have them with us this afternoon. I know that Members of the Standing Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations have gone on a digging spree many times in this session and previously to ensure that we have a long-standing relationship between Kenya and the United Kingdom (UK), with specific reference to the work that the British Army does around the area of Nanyuki, who are on a specific mission that brings this visiting delegation to this country. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I know you cannot be a visitor to Nanyuki because that is your home area. Probably on many occasions for one reason or the other, when you are not at home in Meru, you find your way to Nanyuki. However, the likes of Sen. Oketch Gicheru and the rest of us who come from the western side of the country, whenever we visit, the thriving Nanyuki Town is a testament to the good work that this organisation continues to do."
