    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank Sen. Cherarkey for coming up with a Statement that recognises these Kenyans that make us proud. Any time I travel out of the country and people ask where I come from, I always say “do you know that country that Faith Kipyegon comes from, that is my country.” This lady has made us proud. This lady has made us proud. I tell people in foreign countries that I am from Kenya. I want those foreigners to forgive me because when they ask me if I know Faith, I always say that she is my neighbour because they do not know. I am so proud of that lady. When you break that record, you feel proud. There is nothing that unifies us as a country more than sports. I cannot wait for the day she will be here and address the nation from the Senate. Those are the guys that build the name and the reputation of our country, Kenya. If Faith is watching me, she should know that I am proud of her. On behalf of all athletes, I want this girl to inspire the upcoming athletes. I was very pained while watching the 3,000 metres steeplechase race that has traditionally been a Kenyan race and we lost. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have lost that race to the Moroccans. I hope we can do something. Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, we have been winning the 3,000 metres steeplechase on number one, two and three since 1969. Now, we cannot even get a bronze. I want to call it a national tragedy. How can a country defeat Kenya in 3,000 metres steeplechase? It is unacceptable. If there is anything we can do and on this one, we can speak with one voice, even if it is doing what President Museveni does, then we should do it."
