Very briefly, I want to congratulate the young lady because at one stage she was quoted as having dedicated her success to the late Prof. Nyong’o who was her uncle. I have a small thing to share from there because the late Prof. Nyong’o was my lecturer of pathology at the School of Medicine. These are very exciting times. As we congratulate Ms. Lupita, I feel proud to count the number of Kenyans who sit in the international lime light. I was looking at a photograph of the Group of 20 (G20) and I could not help noticing that Dr. Mukhisa Kituyi was seated among those people. He comes from this country. When I watch the Italian Soccer, I see McDonald Mariga, a youth of this country. When I watch the Belgian League, I see Denis Oliech and feel proud. When I watch the English Premier League, I see young Robert Wanyama who plays at Southampton. This makes me very proud. We are also doing well because in the Kenya Football Federation (KFF), we have started recognizing talent. It was very exciting that last year, the best player came from one of those communities which are least associated with playing soccer.
