"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to associate myself with the Report of the Committee. At the outset, we need to support this Report. I have studied part of the Report and picked two things I was very keen on. One of them is the Cabinet Secretary nominee for Water, Sanitation and Irrigation. After watching Mr Eric articulate issues to do with water, I concluded that he was ready to learn more. He also demonstrated a potential to lead the Ministry. Let him be a good example to other young professional people who are ready to steer this country. He is not a polluted candidate. I support his nomination. I truly identify myself with Prof Kithure Kindiki. He a Cabinet Secretary who has put his life in danger by visiting all the dangerous zones in this country. We know there are zones with bandits and Al Shabaab, among other dangers. If one can take a risk to be at the front in combat, that is a very nice nomination. He is also available. When you call him and he misses your call, he returns it or writes a message to say that he will call back. This is one nominee who welcomes Members of Parliament and the public to his office. When cattle rustling became very intensive in Meru County, he came and held barazas himself. He is one person who keeps his promises. As we discuss this nomination, we need to enhance the position of the Cabinet Secretary. As a House, we need to address the operation of the security system. The Inspector-General of Police is a centre of weakness. We have to address that because the weakness many people see in Hon. Kindiki is because of that of the Inspector-General of Police. Hon. Speaker, with those few remarks, I support."
