    "content": "Hilary Clinton Foundation. There should have been a place where all of us would have spent some of the money that we were given to buy a ciondo. I would have been happy to do so, so that we can promote local tourism. Allow those platforms, like the way supermarkets do. If you go to Yaya Centre on weekends, they close one floor and allow people who are selling curios to sit there. If you go to Prestige in Nairobi, they do the same. Why will county governments not do the same? Kwame Nkrumah Road in Mombasa or any place can do the same. We can close it on a Saturday and allow people who have carvings and curios to sell their wares on one road, like Kenyatta Avenue. Imagine the sort of business we would give to these local people who have things that they can sell. For that particular day, allow them to sell their wares throughout the day and night. We can do like what the Brazilians do; 24 hours. We put lights, security and ensure that people make money. Those are my proposals. For those periods, have a tourism week in Makueni or Marsabit. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, call us to Samburu for the cultural week such as the one we have in Lamu, so that it becomes a way of tourism. During that week, one of the Senate Committees can go and have their sitting in Lamu. After our meetings, we can then go and learn the traditions and some of the things that the good people of Samburu and other places do."
