    "content": "Obama for being the first Blackman to make that be evidenced in the highest office in the greatest nation in the world. We thank him because I can now face my five boys and tell them that the American dream will one day become the world dream for the entire humanity. Madam Temporary Speaker, we cannot fail to pause to remember the thinking of great leaders. Fidel Castro, in 1973, made a prophecy. We thank President Obama that the prophecy of Fidel Castro has been actualised. Fidel Castro said that America would work with Cuba when a Blackman is a president and a Latino Pope. Today, the Pope is from Latin America and President Obama, a Blackman, is the President of the United States of America (USA). Fidel Castro is still alive. He must be very happy that he has been proved right. Madam Temporary Speaker, the coming of the President of the USA is not a homecoming. He will be coming to officially preside over the Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES). How I wish he would find time to come home. He does not know the nostalgia he will meet. Those of us who have been here for a while – my brothers; Sen. Murungi and Sen. Orengo are here – will attest to this. I remember in 2003 when some old man, a bandit from Ethiopia, was mistaken for being the lost General Mathenge. The excitement that was in this Parliament – that finally, a hero had arrived – was something to behold. I would have loved to see the Luo people celebrate their own son; not because he is a fake hero like the story of “General Mathenge” in 2003, but a real hero. Madam Temporary Speaker, we must give it to them. Many parents are usually happy to have a child who is number one even in a nursery school. The Luo people have a son who is number one in the world. We should thank them for that. It appears as if there is something special about the Luo people who are my neighbours. Lupita who is number one in the film industry is a Luo. Hon. Obama who is the President of the USA is a Luo. Dennis Oliech, the first boy to play international soccer is a Luo."
