"content": "(Hon. (Ms.) Rozaah Akinyi Buyu): Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Motion which I support. At the outset, I would like to say that this is the first time I am addressing this august House. I would like you to allow me to thank the people of Kisumu County for ending my 12 years of working and struggling to come and represent them in this august House. The 12 years were years of agony and anxiety, but in the end the people of Kisumu County saw it fit to give me this opportunity. I thank them wholeheartedly as I also give them assurance that I will serve them according to all the pledges that I made to them. Looking at this Motion and looking at the names that have been proposed to join the PAP, the one thing that I have been passionate about is the issue of inclusivity of both gender. Looking at the composition of the membership of this Committee, it is clear that the gender rule has been adhered to - we have a mixture of both genders. The PAP stands for unity of all the African states and inclusivity. When there is unity and inclusivity, the continent can only be the beneficiary of it. As I talk of unity, I also think of the unity that the country is currently undergoing between the two major coalitions. I would like to point out that the country is going to be the beneficiary of that unity because when there is unity, there can only be economic progress. We look forward to working together for that economic progress of Kenya. In the end, when PAP achieves what it is supposed to achieve, Africa will be stronger, more united, and it will able to speak with one voice. It will be able to consider and debate all its challenges with one voice. Thank you. I support."
