    "content": "Thank you so much, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to second this Motion. Allow me to thank Sen. Omanga for coming up with this Motion on children with disabilities. I appreciate my colleagues in this House for taking the initiative to ensure that they are taking issues of disabilities seriously in this House. As someone representing Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), I truly appreciate when legislators without disability take it as their initiative to move the agenda. I also want to encourage other legislators to continue coming up with Motions, Bills, Statements and Petitions on issues to do with disability so that no one is left behind. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Kenya is among the nations that signed and ratified the United Nations (UN) Convention and the rights of PWDs. When it did so, it affirmed that it will abide by the international laws that have to do with the rights of PWDs. As a country, it is prudent that we go by the international laws concerning rights of PWDs."
