    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to share a few thoughts on this very important Bill. I commend Sen. Wamatinga for bringing it. Generally, when we think of mining oil and gas, there is nothing that can bring inclusive growth at the scale we need to deal with in this country like envisioning a local content framework in the public policy space Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are talking at a time that the country has just experienced a serious uprising of young people who are desolate and do not have jobs. Many of us have now focused on the jobs conversation. Now, we have to start talking about income conversations. Where jobs are not possible to find, income certainly should come for the purpose of helping young people. The extractive sector is, indeed, the place to anchor this job creation, especially when you think about host communities that are blessed with these resources such as minerals, oil and gas.
