"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. I would like to request the delegation from Makueni County to go and deliver our greetings to the Governor of Makueni who has been our colleague in this House for a long time. Do remind him that the high standards he left are still being maintained by Sen. Maanzo. Makueni is a unique place in Parliament because that is the place where we had Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Snr., one of the most polished leaders of the Republic of Kenya. Finally, our visitors from Africa; you are most welcome. Allow me to use this opportunity to request the parliamentarians of West Africa, the western part of Africa, to come together and ensure that the fighting in Congo comes to an end. It is over 70 years when Patrice Lumumba died because of the rich gold and mineral deposits in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). It cannot continue forever. In fact, to the Member of Parliament from DRC; when you go back, send my greetings to my cousins there. The people in Eastern Congo are the same ones who are in the Western part of Kenya. That is why there is respect for the Congo Forest and Kakamega Forest, the only existing tropical forests in the continent of Africa. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
