"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, Lamu Port is important for us as a country. It is one of the biggest flagship projects of the Jubilee Administration. It is also part of Vision 2030 which was established by the Leadership of President Mwai Kibaki. Once the Lamu Port-South Sudan-Ethiopia-Transport (LAPSSET) Corridor comes into effect, this country will change. However, we do not want Kenya to benefit while the people of Lamu suffer or are disenfranchised. Therefore, I hope that the Committee will not only call public officers to Nairobi but also have time to visit. I congratulate Sen. Wamatangi’s Committee for being proactive in visiting parts of the country. However, they should table the reports of the Committee on the Floor of this House. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I once again congratulate Sen. Loitiptip. If he continues with this trajectory, he will leave his name in the annals of history as a young Senator, elected by the people of Lamu and one who fights for the interests of his own people. I know that he is a hardworking and committed young person."
