    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I have known the Cheptumos for quite some time. They have acted for me on certain matters before they joined Parliament. I know Hanna and I also knew the late Senator. Anybody can vouch for them. They are extremely honest and pragmatic. Her statements on Monday may have different interpretations, but it was a slip of the tongue. That is not the Hanna that I know. There is a reason why the framers of the current Constitution introduced stages in the approval process of a Cabinet Secretary. In the previous constitutional dispensation, individuals were just appointed by the President, which meant that they lacked public interaction, representation, and the image of being the interface between the Presidency and the public. Currently, the President nominates a candidate, his or her name is submitted to the House, the candidate is vetted, and the report comes back to the House for approval. That amplifies the persona of that particular individual. Therefore, I have no doubt in my mind that Hanna will serve everybody. I have total faith in her, I have interacted with her, and I believe she is the right person for that job. I support her approval."
