    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I just want to support this Motion because those two are great Kenyans. As hon. Angwenyi has said, if this gentleman, Dr. Abdullahi Ibrahim Ali worked that hard for a long time, there is no reason why we cannot approve his appointment to the Parliamentary Service Commission, together with the honourable Lady whose vast experience has been shared with us by hon. (Ms.) Wanga. What I would like to say in support of the appointment is that they should join the rest. I urge Members who are in the Parliamentary Service Commission to make sure they are not compromised. They should look into the welfare of Members and not look back. I know hon. Angwenyi has vast experience. I have worked with him in the previous Governments and he is very hard-working. What he has said is true. If we can have Members who are committed to the welfare of Members of both Parliaments, that would be very good. In support of the appointment of these two great Kenyans, it is always good to look at the face of Kenya and try to balance regional interest and gender. Now that Ms. Lonah Mumelo comes from the region where the other would-be member of Parliamentary Service Commission comes from, we will be filling that vacuum, instead of leaving it the way it is. So, because they have exhibited leadership and they have the qualification that is required by the positions that they hold, they have a historical background of working for the welfare of Kenyans, I have no reservations in supporting their appointments."
