I have no doubt that Hon. Mutahi Kagwe is up to the task. As has been said, he served as a Senator and now he has been nominated to serve in a Ministry in which most of the functions are devolved.

As he allowed multipartyism, he warned us against forming tribal or regional parties or playing regional politics. As others have said, he loved peace not just locally but also regionally.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. On behalf of the people of Kajiado East and the former students of Moi High School Kabarak, since I was a student there, I condole with the family of the late Hon. Daniel Toroitich arap Moi. We remember His Excellency because of the Nyayo milk and peace rally calls. He nurtured the spirit of leadership in me when I was a student at Moi High School, Kabarak. I condole with the family and all Kenyans.
