    "content": "Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Speaker. I thank my colleagues, and specifically this august House, for the good words they have spoken in my support. I express my gratitude to the Senate Majority Leader for this Motion and also his support when I was vying for the seat in Migori County. He was very supportive both in word and deed. I will not mention what he did for me, but he has always been supportive. I confirm that when I was at the university for Masters, he indeed, taught us very well International Trade Law and was a good ―professor.‖ I come from a county where integration and cohesion is needed. We have institutions of Government, such as the Office of the Governor, the Office of the Senator and the County Assembly, and we are in perennial conflict. We also have diversity of ethnicity and religion. The wonderful Committee on National Cohesion, Equal Opportunity and Regional Integration will go a long way in serving its purpose in my county. I also come from an agrarian county, where we grow sugarcane, tobacco and other crops. We also have fish that are born in Kenya and grow up in Tanzania and Uganda, and need to be integrated. So, these two Committees will be useful to me as a person, and I believe in this wonderful House. Having said that, I assure the distinguished Members of this Senate that I will offer my services to the Committees selflessly and with a lot of passion. I hope that I will be useful to the Members of the Committees. I thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker."
