    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to oppose this Motion. Actions speak louder than words. It is not enough for somebody to come to an interview, speak so much, excite you and then you think they will do the job. The best workers that I know of in this country have very little words. Watch our President, hon. Kibaki, how much does he talk? But look at what he has done for this nation for ten years. You can easily say he does not have passion when he speaks to you, but look at his actions. So, we cannot sit here and judge people on the basis of this new word called “passion”, which we cannot even measure. You cannot just look at people and conclude, from the looks on their faces and from the way they have spoken, that they lack passion. That is a very dangerous way of determining how well a person can do a job. What worries me more is what hon. Shebesh has said. Two women here are about to lose their chances to serve this nation because some people feel that they are not passionate enough. I want to repeat what hon. Shebesh has said. If you want to know how passionate a woman is, give her the job. You will see the passion in her. You cannot see the passion in her because of how well she speaks or how excited she becomes towards you. I believe that these two women can perform very well for this nation."
