    "content": "Harold Kipchumba won that award. He has made Kenya proud and we must celebrate him. We hope that in December, he will receive the highest award from the country and Government for the sector of health for having stood firm for the children who are five years and below. That is the age where many children face different challenges and many of them suffer polio and many other diseases. As I support, let me salute Mr. Harold Kipchumba. In the Senate, we are, indeed, proud that you were one of us and you are still one of us because the title remains that you will always be a Senator. For once, let us move out. I hope that Sen. Njoroge and Sen. Omondi will support him in terms of ensuring the polio campaign and other campaigns for people living with disability are sustained. We even have albinos and many other forms of disabilities. I think they have a very critical job and that is why the Constitution gave them the opportunity to be in Parliament. I hope that they will take this chance and ensure that before they leave this House, they will ensure that we have passed critical Bills, not just in the Senate but also in the National Assembly to support people living with disability and ensure that their voices are heard. Today, they cannot stand out there and say that they are still marginalized because they are now right inside the decision making organ. They must stand up and fight for their people. While we also stand and fight for them, they are the wearers of the shoe and understand better the pain that people with disability go through. However, we always believe that disability is not inability. Therefore, given an opportunity, we know they can also join the force to transform this country. As he moves on, we wish him well together with his son. I remember the last time he was leaving, his son was sick in hospital. I believe that that young man has since healed and moved on with his life. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
