    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me a chance to also support the approval of Hon. Pareno as principal secretary. Unlike others who have had experience with her in party politics, I was, perhaps, the most independent Member of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs because I had not interacted with her before. The manner of her presentation, articulation and understanding of the Constitution of Kenya and political play left no doubt in my mind that she is one of the best nominees for the position of principal secretary in the ministry or department that she is destined to. With the structures existing in that department, I thank my Committee Chair and Members for noticing that there might be an incongruence of that appointment. In line with observing the independence of the three Arms of government, it was in order to let the Executive go and iron out any creases or incongruence that may arise in the pursuit of giving that great legal mind an opportunity to serve this country. I also adore the manner in which she was appointed because this is one of the coveted positions in this country, particularly for women. I say coveted because Nyamira County does not have a principal secretary and we are craving for it. However, I am more than compensated because I am also a resident of Kajiado from where Hon. Pareno reigns. Therefore, I am more than represented in the management of the public affairs of this country. I urge our colleagues to support the approval of that great mind and wish her well as she claims the position of great women who will take this country to another level. I support."
