Farhiya","speaker_title":"","speaker":{"id":13179,"legal_name":"Farhiya Ali Haji","slug":"farhiya-ali-haji"},"content":"Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I am so proud to be associated with Strathmore Business School. I did my Certified Public Accountant (CPA) course Section IV and VI there and I am honoured to see them in the Speaker’s Gallery. There is a big gap when it comes to the understanding of financial issues. We need to fight corruption in this country and to do that one needs to understand the nitty- gritties. These upcoming accountants should not shy away from politics. Instead, they should join politics in order for them to make a difference. The existence of this country is under threat because of corruption. This Senate is full of wisdom and they will find great debaters in this House. I welcome the students from Strathmore University. I also want to welcome the Members of the Committee from Trans Nzoia County Assembly."}
