"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity. First, I congratulate you and the elected Hon. Deputy Speaker. This happened because you served us well. You got more votes than your opponent. I thank the people of Kuria West who took their time to re-elect me for the second term. I had a hard time in my constituency. We were many contestants in Kuria West. We were ten members fighting for the same seat, including the former Senator Machage who came back for the Member of National Assembly seat. However, I was giving promises to my people because of my work and the Government we had. Since Independence, the people of Kuria have been in the cold. It is only this Jubilee Government that came and saved the people of Kuria, being a minority and the fact that we share the County of Migori and you understand its challenges. In 2013, I was elected with the United Republic Party (URP) ticket and people wondered how I managed. This time round, I vied in the same Jubilee Party. People think that Migori County is “CORDED”, but it is not. I am assuring Kenyans this time round in the coming elections that our President will get more votes in Kuria West than what he got the last time. We are praying for peace in our Country. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
