    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. We are delighted to welcome this team. It is a big team of 26. Yesterday, we went to Turkana County, particularly, Kakuma Camp. They are on a mission in the country to promote education, especially to disadvantaged children. That is why they are accompanied by the CEO of Save the Children Fund of the USA. In fact, I am a beneficiary of Save the Children Fund, UK. It took me to Starehe Boys Centre when it was fundraised by Princess Anne. They are concentrating on the plight of the disadvantaged children who deserve an education in the Kakuma Camp and any other camp in the country. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Congressman from Virginia is in the Committee of Energy in the Congress, and Sarah, who is a Congress Lady from California, is in the Committee on Foreign Relations. The Congressmen and women have teamed up with those other organizations so that they can do something for the children of Africa and the rest of the world in relation to education as their passion. They also visited Masai Mara. They are here for a few more days and will visit other places. Recently, Sen. Chris Coons was in town. I was lucky to host him in one of the occasions for dinner. He did a lot of work in the bipartisan process. If you look at the current Congress man and Congress woman, they are also from two different political parties. One is a Republican, and the other is a Democrat and they are very bipartisan even in the way they conduct activities when serving the nation and the world. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I take this opportunity to welcome them. I am sure one or two other Senators will join us as we have a cup of tea after this so that they can interact more."
