"content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, I can see the mood of the House so I will be very brief. I support the Committee in its recommendation to have Mr. John Omenge appointed as a PS in this ministry. I know Mr. Omenge. As a result of this appointment, I just want to say two things. The first is that this appointment goes a long way in motivating those who are in the Civil Service in terms of their getting opportunities to be appointed. Listening to the history of this particular officer, he has served in the Civil Service for many years up to the level of a director and now he has been confirmed as a PS. This is very good for those who are in the Civil Service. As a House, I recommend that we get more of this kind of appointments so that we motivate other career civil servants to work hard in the service. The second point is that I have interacted with this particular officer when we discussed the issue of coal in Kitui County. Kitui County has a lot of coal and he was one of the key officers in terms of deliberations on this coal. I want to appeal that now that he has become the PS, he should work very closely with the leaders from that county to make sure that this coal is exploited for the benefit of our people and country. I support the Motion."
