    "content": "Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I am a Member of this Committee and I wish to support this Motion. I wish to thank His Excellency the President and the Deputy President for considering the marginalized areas. When you look at the list, Lesiyampe comes from Samburu; Teko comes from Pokot and Dr. Ekai from Turkana. These are highly qualified people. Lesiyampe said that we need to reduce exposure of employees to money in order to reduce corruption. That is how he has managed the Kenyatta National Hospital very well. He knows how to manage finances. So, this person is highly qualified and I support his appointment to the Ministry of Environment, Water and Mineral Resources. He is a performer. He has performed at the Kenya Wildlife Service and also at the KNH. We know him as a performer. He knows how to deal with issues of employees. That is why the KNH is not exposed to strikes. How I wish this person had been appointed to the Labour docket so that he can deal with labour related issues now that we are being threatened with the teachers’ strike. We need to have people who understand labour issues. I hope we will get a chance also to discuss the ongoing teachers’ strike and how to end it."
