    "content": "Sen. Cherarkey, when he speaks should remember my people – the Abagusii nation. We were the champions in the 4 by 4. It was a quartet of Robert Ouko, Naftaly Teemu, Nyandiko Mairo, you know them. You run for 400 metres handing the baton to the next and you win. That is what we want this country to go back to. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have another proud lady from Omugusii, she is Moraa. She is our champion and is unbeatable in 800 metres. In that race, you go twice in the field. Those are the Kenyans who make us proud. Let me make you laugh, Mr. Speaker, Sir. last time when we had the Kip Keino Classic, I sat somewhere and someone whispered to me that the elderly mama and mzee seated next to me were parents of Omanyala. I pleaded with them to allow me to take a selfie with them. I have a selfie with the parents of Omanyala on my phone because these people make me proud. This is a good initiative. The Senate Majority and Minority Leaders should move with speed and invite those Kenyans to come here and address the nation. I want the young children appreciating these Kenyans to also work hard and bring gold to other races. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you can imagine with hard work, we are now able to challenge the Americans in 100 metres through Omanyala. It is unbelievable. So, tell your children to eat ugali. That is what Omanyala eats. I hope and pray that in the World Champions, he brings gold to this country. Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, let the people of Kakamega, Gusii and the Rift Valley pray that Omanyala brings gold. I am proud of these Kenyans. They make me proud and feel good. We wish them all the best. Let the Government create some incentives so that we see more champions. Faith Kipyegon, I am proud of you and I congratulate you. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
