"content": "Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I was just complimenting Hon. Muhia for what she said on the ability to even read people’s minds. If we are innovative enough, because of the technology that exists, if we can do more, we should be able to. I quite agree with him because the social psychology of technological innovation is said to be as mysterious as that of any form of creativity. Based on this, we should be able to do more to ensure that we come up with new ways of doing things that will have an impact on our nation. While this is so, our education system - my brothers have talked about this - should be adjusted so that we are able to enhance creativity and innovation. The system of education also matters so much if we are to move in the direction that Members have talked about since morning. Because of the need for other Members to speak, I would like to say that we must lay strategies that will take us through to engage and come up with meaningful innovations as envisaged by Hon. Mwaura. When I complimented you, Hon. Mwaura, you were not in. I want to thank you for this Motion. But I was worried you are only urging the Government. As we know, the Jubilee Government initially had these plans for the youth in our country but nothing has happened, including stadiums, academies and so on. What will make them implement this good Motion? It is, therefore, important, Hon. Mwaura, that you follow up this Motion with a Bill. I hope you are in the process of developing the same or it is ready so that it can be brought to the House with details that will ensure what the spirit is, what your thinking is and what we need to do for the youth in our country is implemented. If that does not happen, we are just going to debate here and Members will give good ideas then it ends there. With these remarks, I support the Motion and pray that legislation is brought in the House to ensure it becomes law. I thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
