    "content": "That, I was in a moral dilemma as we were moving out of here. I went to get my bag in the lounge. The Bishop, together with Hon. Museo, told me: “Hon. Millie, you are leaving us here?” I quickly thought, because the groups were already coming. They were very many. I looked around me and I was like, where do I take them? Everybody was walking up the stairs. They are in wheelchairs. Where do you take them? So, even in our own budgeting when we are building this Parliament, when you look at the exits, where do the persons with disability go? Our budgeting never takes that into account. That is why I hope we are not pushed into a corner only in 2024 and then in 2025, we go back to our bad manners. Let every budgeting that we do; not look like it is a budget of a crisis. We should think about Kenyans. Sometimes, I do not know what leadership does to us. I am writing my book which I call Privileged . It is misleading because my privilege is because God enabled me to go through some challenges in life, so that I am privileged that when I am in a position like this, I understand. My father was a member of the regional assembly and so, I was a child of the privileged. Whenever we had events like Madaraka Day or public holidays, I used to be taken to the front when my father was alive. My father died in November and in December when I went to the front, I was chased and told to go and stand in the sun. I was like: \"Hey! You guys do not understand! I am the daughter of Harrison Odhiambo.\" But I was told: \" Kwendakabisa .\" I was beaten and taken back. That has taught me that even when I am a leader, I do not need to feel good, floss and show off to people. What for? These things are flimsy and they are here for a moment. The lessons that have just happened here are things to teach us that these things are for a moment."
