    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. At the outset, I take this opportunity to welcome all the students in the Public Gallery who have got an opportunity to tour Parliament and witness the proceedings on the Floor of this House. In a very special way, allow me to welcome the students from Brighton International School and all the teachers led by Mr Fredrick Yongo. It is one of the best schools we have in Mavoko Constituency, Machakos County. I have not seen the Member for Mavoko. I would have given him an opportunity to welcome them too. As a parent in Brighton International School, I am very proud to see our daughters and sons in Parliament today. I want to give a word of encouragement to all the students who are present here today. Work hard. If you remain focused, the sky is the limit. All of you will achieve your dreams. At one time in our lives, we were smartly dressed like you are today. Some of us did not get an opportunity to visit Parliament. If you want to be a doctor, you can be one. You can also be a legislator and be on this Floor of the House some time in future legislating for this nation. You can also be an engineer. However, you need to work hard because there is no shortcut to success."
