    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank my colleague, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. I know that it is Prof. Obel who came up with Pearl Omega and some other concoction which made a significant contribution to not only Kenyans, but the whole world. I know that there are also some Europeans who came to Kenya to seek his medication. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, all in all, I thank the first scientists because I know the environment in which they attempted to produce the medication was difficult. HIV/AIDS is a very difficult case to handle. It is important that we have special Bills to address some of the challenges that we have. One of the things about HIV/AIDS is that it directly affects procreation. It is important to note that HIV/AIDS affects procreation. Therefore, it should be controlled. We know the difficulties which HIV/AIDS patients go through in order to procreate and have their own children. This is what makes it a very difficult disease to manage. However, more significantly, it is very worrying to note what is happening today among our youth. Last night, there was a report about hundreds of youths in Eldoret, which is in Uasin Gishu County. Earlier, I thought that it was in Kakamega. That was indiscriminate behaviour of those young individuals. You can imagine the very danger that those youths exposed themselves to by that kind of behaviour. It is, therefore, important, that we continue looking at Bills that will help us to prevent and control some of the results of such kind of behaviour."
