    "content": "I do not agree entirely with those who are saying that if you become a Member of Parliament, you have just walked from the streets. Winning a seat as a Member of Parliament and especially you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the number of votes that you were able to garner to be the County Women Representative for Nairobi County is not easy. To talk to people and convince them that you can lead and be given an opportunity to lead even if you did not go to school, is not a mean achievement. In this country, people tend to downplay the role played by politicians. Politicians are leaders who contribute to the development of this country in their own right. Just like in the business sector, there are horrible ones and good ones, in politics you will also get horrible politicians and good ones. I think it is not right to just say that once somebody assumes office--- It is like getting to that office, you just wake up one morning and get it."
