    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish to thank all the Members who have contributed. As a patriotic Kenyan, let me join the rest of the nation in congratulating our athletes who are beating the world in Rio de Janeiro. Early this morning, it was a great joy for all of us to witness young Faith Kipyegon defeat the indomitable Genzebe Dibaba to get our third gold medal. Earlier on, Jemimah Sumgong set the face in the women’s marathon; our first athlete in the Olympics. Of course, yesterday was the day for the king himself David Lekuta Rudisha. I am glad I am making this reply now because at 5.50 p.m. we are expecting to win gold in steeple chase. I want to be in front of a screen to witness history unfolding live. I want to thank all the Members who have contributed to this Bill even as I observe with a bit of sadness that this House is almost empty at a time when we are debating the Report of PAC, which shows a lot of mismanagement of public resources. Parliament exists to look after the resources on behalf of the people. I wish more Members could be in the House today so that the Question to this important Motion can be put. Having said that let me thank all the Members who took time to contribute to this debate. They are my able Vice-Chair, the Member for Kipkelion West, Hon. Jackson Rop; Hon. Manson Nyamweya of South Mugirango; Hon. (Ms.) Sabina Chege of Muranga County; Hon. Manje of Kajiado North; Hon. Abdikadir Aden of Balambala; my good friend and thanks for his kind words about the Committee, Hon. (Dr.) Njogu Barua of Gichugu; Hon. Macharia of Molo; Hon. Lodepe Nakara of Turkana Central; Hon. Sakwa Bunyasi of Nambale; Hon. Regina Ndambuki, the verbal lady from Makueni County and Hon. Melly of Tinderet."
