    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. On behalf of the House, I would like to first convey my congratulations to our two colleagues, Hon. John Mbadi and Hon. Opiyo Wandayi. As Hon. John Mbadi has said, indeed, we are friends. When I joined this House in 2013, Hon. John Mbadi was a member of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), and I happened to be elected as the Vice-Chairman of PAC in my first term. Being professional colleagues, we had a lot to learn from each other. I had much to learn from him, having been my senior and joined the House five years ahead of me. He succeeded the late Hon. Nyenze as the Leader of the Minority Party. We worked very well together when he was the Leader of the Minority Party, and I was an ordinary Member and later Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. He also served me as a member of the Budget and Appropriations Committee, and we immensely benefitted from his knowledge of public finance matters, having been one of the architects of our Public Finance Management Act, 2012.
