I urge the students to pick from the Senate how diverse opinions and issues are processed through dialogue, conversation and persuasion.

I pray that when they go back to their county, they will stay focused and guarantee a stable future for this country as the next line and generation of leaders.

When the results are negative in any school, some people think that the students are the ones who do not know what they are doing. What about the teacher? Could it be that the teacher does not know how to teach? Could it be that the teacher has malice and designed a situation that causes mass failure? This is an important matter that requires investigation. While studying for Masters many years ago at the UoN, I was in a class with Sen. Dullo and Senior Counsel, Murgor.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me this opportunity. I add my voice to the message of goodwill from this Parliament from the Members who have spoken before me.
