"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish to conclude my contribution by saying that we support the nominees. It is in our diversity and regional backgrounds that our strength lies. Once someone is a nominee from a certain area, we are not saying that he will serve the people of that area only. He will serve the people of the Republic of Kenya. We are proud of them while supporting and wishing them well. I have interacted with some of the nominees, like the one for the position of Cabinet Secretary for the Ministry of Interior and National Administration. His background is in law. However, he has performed exemplary well in that docket. He has done well. He has ensured that all the problems within our regions and boundaries are contained. I thank the appointing authority, His Excellency the President, for listening to Kenyans and enhancing a broad-based government where we see people not through the lenses of regional and ethnic backgrounds. Instead, people get opportunity because of their expertise and skills. I do not have any iota of doubt that all the nominees who have been given the positions, if approved by this House, will serve all Kenyans diligently, and not serve as representatives of regional cocoons and kingpins. Ours is to make sure that they perform well. We are here to support and wish them well."
