"content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker for granting me the opportunity to speak to this important Motion. A short while ago, I was in Turkey and I saw the economic potential there and the possibilities for growth in bilateral arrangements with them. In fact, when I returned to the country, I posted something on my social media page asking why we did not have a mission in Turkey. I want to confirm to the country that I now know our President is truly digital because a day following that post, an announcement came that we are going to have a mission in Turkey and, of course, hon. Kiema is headed there. Hon. Speaker, I am saying this to emphasise the fact that we must be very strategic in the manner in which we create and position our missions to engage with the world. Turkey is possibly the strongest and fastest growing economy in Europe and Asia. It is a very unique country and I think I want to wish the Ambassador very well. Sometimes, leadership goes local. Let me take this opportunity to thank His Excellency the President for remembering Nyanza Province with up to four appointments. Two are coming from the Kisii side while the other two are distinguished Kenyans coming from the Luo side of Nyanza. We spoke of Jeoff Otieno."
