    "content": "The amazing thing is that this gentleman has served in Government for 28 years with no record of corruption especially in this era when we are fighting corruption. He has no problem with the public as evidenced in this Report because there was not even a single compliant from the public during the window when he was actually being vetted. Hon. Speaker, this is a career civil servant who joined the service in 1992 and served from the lowest level to the highest level. Clearly, this is a gentleman who has risen through the ranks based on merit and not any other consideration. I also want to declare my interest. This gentleman comes from my constituency. I know him. He is a very diligent constituent. He has zero record of bad behaviour in the constituency. He is a very generous man. He is taking care of very many people in the constituency. I also want to say that this gentleman has zero interest in politics now and into the future. Looking at his CV – the papers he has written and his history - this is truly a suitable candidate for this role. I thank the President for having thought it wise to reward people from within the system, people who have served this country with diligence over the years. I am sure Dr. Francis Owino is going to add value. I also thank His Excellency Raila Odinga for creating an enabling environment that certain parts of this country are also beginning to feel part of Kenya. Without further ado, I fully support. Once this Member who has been nominated gets to office, this House might consider giving budget finally to NYS because we are now going to have a PS in charge of youth, a man of integrity. I beg to support."
