    "content": "hope that as she goes back, she will include the terrorism prevention and compensation fund. Madam Temporary Speaker, we also want the protection of UN and the Red Cross staff because they provide humanitarian assistance in Eastern Congo, Kakuma, Uganda and all over. I propose that as the Senator goes back, we should have a list of all prescribed and militias that continue to destabilize the countries over insecurity issue. The Senate and the Parliaments that have been mentioned are the source of democracy. I encourage that as you go back, discuss how we can make democracy strong. This is because most of this insecurity and conflict is about political power. If democracy is respected, then 90 per cent of conflict that we see in this region is very unfortunate. I am happy that the President of the Republic of Kenya the other day appointed a former Cabinet Minister of Energy, Hon. Charles Keter, to be to be one of the great advisors on peace and security. We are proud of that. I know you know him very well. I assure Sen. Lemaletian that her destiny is brighter, especially when because she has passed through the Senate. She is doing a good job. I have had a discussion with her. I am honoured to second by her. When I met Hon. Charles Keter, he told me about what he is doing on bringing peace in this Republic. However, I request the UN to classify and tell us who are these terror organizations that are causing insecurity in our region and across the world like the way we have done with Al-Shabaab, Al-Qaeda and many others that continue to destabilize the security of this region. With those very many remarks, I support this report. I wish the Senator well. She needs to know that she is the face of the young people. When young people do this, they give us a good name in leadership. As young people, we must also stay under the guidance and wisdom of our elders. In my local language, they say, “An old man seated under a tree can see far than a young man who is on the top of the tree.” So, as young leaders, we must remain ruthlessly focused. However, we must also remain under the tutelage and guidance of our leaders and people who are senior than us. This way, they can provide any support. As women leadership, you must also take charge and provide leadership the way Sen. Lemaletian has provided today. We want to see more of her. I know she was part of the people who used to lead Kenya Young Parliamentarians Association (KYPA). She did a good job until her tenure ended. We ask her to take other challenges that come her way so that many young girls and women who look up to you--- Madam Temporary Speaker, I know you are the Secretary General Emeritus of United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party. You ensured that you midwifed the nominations of UDA party, and also assisted us in forming the Government that we have today. We are proud to see what women can do. I encourage women wherever they are that they can deliver. I want to correct this misnomer. As men in leadership, we do not see leadership in terms of gender."
