    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. The future of this world is science. Science has made nations great. It is a deliberate investment in science, schools and universities that will move our country to national capital. Look at the great innovation coming from Kenya, M-Pesa. It has transformed almost everything in this country. You use M-Pesa if you want food, medical services or any other service. All the transactions we do are science. Science is the future. A country that aspires to be a great nation must invest in science. A great country like the United States is great because it invests in science. We must deliberately invest in science if we want to be a great nation. Mwai Kibaki thought of science when the Konza City was started. There is great space for science in Vision 2030. Why should we have a science museum? You will find a science museum if you look at great places the world over: New York, New Delhi, and London. We have science museums to see the progress and future of the ‘science’ we have made. That is critical. Where will young innovators who want to be scientists benchmark from? These young people come to Parliament and when they see and experience what is in this Parliament, they go out there and aspire to be Members of Parliament. In the same way, if we take our young people to those science museums, they will want to be scientists. Therefore, we will cultivate a love of science in them."
