Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, you will bear me witness that, given a platform, I can move the masses. There are very many of us out there. If they are given a platform, they will move the masses and get elected to this House. There are many people who are like Hon. Timothy Wanyonyi out there. There are also many people who are like Hon. Janet Teiya out there. If those people are given opportunity, they will move the masses. This amendment will give us an opportunity and I assure you, if I will not be elected as Governor; I will ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also want to salute Mr. Eliud Kipchoge and Ms. Brigid who broke a world record in her marathon. They made us proud as a nation. However, for those of us who are leaders, it was time to reflect and ask ourselves what lessons we are learning out of these great heroes and heroines so that we should never think that heroes are men only, but rather we have heroines too. I could not help, but ask myself how many more young Eliud Kipchoges and Brigids are out there in the The electronic version ...

villages and their talents are not identified and nurtured. They end up living lives of want and poverty because somebody failed to identify, nurture and enable their talents to grow. That is what is happening to our young people. I could not also help but remember how in my primary school there was this young man who was always number one in all the races; be it within the school or across schools. He was not gifted academically. I remember one time the teacher commenting about his performance in mathematics, because he only scored 4 per cent, saying that his ...

Day. We expect that Eliud Kipchoge will be given a CBS commendation. I am really looking forward to that. Not even CBS, EGH. That is where he belongs, not CBS like the one Hon. Wamalwa got the other day. I have an MGH, so I expect him to have something bigger than mine because he has done well for this nation. Finally, we must take advantage of this opportunity and make sure we showcase Kenya as a tourism destination through sports tourism. That is an opportunity that we have lost out on as a nation and we need to capture ...

Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. In support of that particular Statement by Hon. Pukose, I seek your direction because this House does not legislate in vain. I have just learnt through the Integrated Financial Management Information System (IFMIS) that the Kshs450 million that we allocated to the Ministry of Public Service, Youth and Gender for procurement of sanitary towels in the Budget has been moved to the Ministry of Education without the approval of this House. The tender has already been advertised and given to only three local manufacturers locking out tenders that are meant for the youth, women ...

Hon. Speaker, the House does not legislate in vain. We went through a rigorous budget- making process in the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare, and we allocated Kshs450 million for procurement of sanitary towels in the Ministry of Public Service, Youth and Gender. That money has been moved without the approval of this House to the Ministry of Education and the tenders have already been advertised through IFMIS.
