"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. First and foremost, I rise to congratulate Ms. Esse Akida. I am a very proud Senator in this House. I happen to be one of the people who has been part of her life. She was seated next to me in her first flight to the All-African Games, Algeria, in 2007. I congratulate her because I have seen her hard work in her sporting activity all the way through. I have seen her grow. I have seen her efforts and training in Kenya. It is a very good example to this country that sport pays. I have been following her wherever she goes, including every team she has been with in Kenya and overseas. This is just an example and a living proof that sports pays. If the Government puts more efforts in this kind of sports, we will change many of our youths in this country. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would also like to congratulate her for writing a book and being a person that many of our youth look up to. I thank her for that. I also appreciate my brother, Sen. Aaron Cheruiyot, for recognising that we were in Moi University in Eldoret at the same time. It is a privilege because most Members here do not have anyone who can say that they were classmates or in the same university. Once again, congratulations, Esse. Keep striving. We are always behind you."
