    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I take this opportunity to, first of all, thank my party, the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Party for nominating me to come to this House. It has been a wonderful year learning the ropes of this House. I also thank my party leader, President William Samoei Ruto, for having nominated me as well for this position. It has been one year of serving in this House, in the capacity of a Vice- Chairperson of the Standing Committee on ICT, where I highlighted the issues of data protection. I proposed the Konza Technopolis Bill, and in that time, I was also able to set up a caucus for women Members of Parliament in ICT. I have been privileged to serve in the National Cohesion Committee, as well as the Delegated Legislation Committee. In my time there, I have learnt a lot and represented women in the best way possible. One of the things that I would like to highlight and give progress is the issue of period poverty. As you all know, on 14th February, 2023 I had an accident here in the Senate, and just from that moment, it was an opportunity for us, as legislators, to put into motion what we were sent here to do."
