    "content": "(Hon. (Ms.) Tecla Tum Chebet): Hon. Deputy Speaker, I take this opportunity to thank the people of Nandi for their overwhelming support. That is why I am here with 247,000 votes. I thank God for enabling me to make it to this House. I applaud the President for celebrating the women of Kenya who made it to this political arena, particularly the three governors, three senators, 23 female Members of Parliament and many members of county assemblies. He highlighted the gains made in promoting inclusion of women in elective offices. We can achieve much if we can break the glass ceiling. I call upon the governors to award women and youth tenders as per the one-third gender rule to enable them to improve their livelihoods, so that we can have more of them in this House in the near future. I congratulate the President for congratulating the youths of Kenya and a majority of them are in this august House and in county assemblies. I got impressed when he talked about peace in our land. He said that he will not allow anybody to mess around with the prevailing peace in Kenya. Therefore, as we get to the elections, we should hold a peaceful election and our President will be re-elected. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
