I stand here very proud of my fellow scholars who are right on track in the world of academia. Hon. (Dr) Joyce Atieno Osogo is found in academia. I also rise to support Beatrice and Dr Oduor for having achieved academic standards. That was evidenced by how they presented cases in their publications and their mastery of the content in which they represented Kenyans. It must be on record that I support the two ladies. I support His Excellency Baba Raila Amollo Odinga for supporting the female gender. The nomination by the President, (Dr) Samoei William Ruto, exhibits that gender balance is quite fundamental in this country. Peace was supposed to be maintained yesterday. At Baba's function, the late President Uhuru also informed people that stability was important. Electing and appointing women creates stability in this country."},{"id":1464264,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1464264/?format=json","text_counter":145,"type":"speech","speaker_name":"Hon.

We are talking about nominees who have qualified to become Cabinet Secretaries after the vetting. This House will have a consideration and recommend them to go and work for Kenya. I have listened very passively to the speakers in the House. Some know Beatrice very well. She has been given the East African Community and Regional Development docket. From what I am getting and watching how she performed in the interview, I am convinced this is the right person for that docket. I also listened to the Attorney-General nominee, Hon. Dorcas Oduor. I am convinced she is the right person. I heard Hon. Junet say, \"If these women\". For the record, women can perform much better than their male counterparts when accorded an opportunity. It is always said, \"What a man can do, a woman can do better.\""}]}
