"content": "This is a very special guest to me. It is a very emotional thing to me because when he actually came to where somebody had given me a casual job of welding, after I had dropped out of school, he picked me and decided to take me back to school, educated me until I finished. One thing that is very special is that this is the first time Mr. Moenga has stepped in Parliament at 78 years old. When I made a request to the leadership of this House, they agreed to have them sit at the Speaker’s Gallery so that they can see what we do in this House, and also to see their product. But again, on the flip-side, Hon. Deputy Speaker, I got surprised today when I welcomed Mr. Moenga because he also knows the Hon. Member for Kisii County, Hon. Dorice Donya Aburi. He also educated Hon. Donya Aburi, because they actually happen to come from the same village. He is a very special person. He dreamt of becoming a Member of Parliament for Nyaribari Chache Constituency years back, but it did not materialise. I told him that by Hon. Aburi and myself being Members of Parliament, it is actually a double victory. That is why I made this very special request. Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
