"content": "Yes, it is true. To sell TNA in Suba is not easy, but this gentleman did that. Secondly, it is the issue of gender. Instead of having, at least, 8 women, we have only four. This is not acceptable! I want to ask the President, if he is watching these deliberations or whoever is watching on his behalf that gender parity is necessary. You need to do it in all appointments, together with Subas being considered. In fact, in the next appointment, I would like to see someone like Mr. Jack Otana getting an appointment. Finally, I heard hon. Ichung’wah talk about hon. Dr. Oburu, who is a qualified Member of Parliament. Hon. Dr. Oburu came to this House when hon. Ichung’wah was probably in primary school. He should respect him just the same way I would respect hon. Beth Mugo who was also nominated to the Senate and she is related to the President. So, those people have the qualifications in their own right. Hon. Ichung’wah is very careless in his talks, although I know his excitement of being a first-timer! That excitement is still with him! But when he matures in the next 12th Parliament, I think he will be a little sober. You can see the way even Ken Obura is excited as a first timer! Thank you, Mr. Speaker."
