    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to join you in welcoming our visitors today. On behalf of my colleague from Laikipia County, who is not present and with whom we come from the same belt, I take the opportunity to welcome the Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) of Laikipia County, acknowledging that this is a prime time. It is a good time for the MCAs to come to this House; a time when we have received reports from the Auditor-General that show the performance of counties across this country. Laikipia is one of the counties that has been scheduled to appear before this House through the County Public Accounts and Investments Committee (CPAIC) to show what they have done with public accounts. Therefore, it is a good thing when the MCAs, who are our counterparts in the business of oversight of public funds allocated to counties, are here. Before I sit down, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, allow me to also acknowledge and welcome the students of Starehe Boys Centre. That is one of the institutions in this country that has had a stellar performance, and which produces outstanding young people. I would like to wish them well in the work that they are doing here. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also welcome all the other schools; the school from Kisii, where my good friend, Sen. (Prof.) Ongeri, comes from; as well as Ogande Girls Secondary School. I hope that they enjoy being in the Senate."
