    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Initially, I did not want to speak, because I had already invited the young girls. However, after Sen. Sakaja‘s inspiration, let me just encourage the young men and women that they are the future of this country; and that everything they do matters and is paid for. I have taught at the university for 23 years since the early 1990s, and I am now in the Senate as a legislator. So is Sen. Sakaja and all the other Senators, who have been trying to work hard to make a difference. As Sen. Sakaja said today, he has been honoured by the country with a CBS. The same is true for Sen. Moi and myself. The same can be true for many other Senators, as well as yourselves. It is always about work and effort; it is always about putting your best foot forward. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have interacted with many students over the years, and sometimes you come across very discouraging situations. You want to take the biggest shortcuts, especially in the examination halls. It does not pay at the end of the day. It is about honesty, integrity, setting up your goals and fighting for these goals, so that when you are awarded, you can step up with your pride and pick that award that is owed to you. I wish them well and hope that they will learn a lot this afternoon, as they are in the Gallery, watching as the Senators speak. I wish them all the best as university students, as current and future citizens of Kenya."
