 So there is one here that we found very interesting, which was a politician, if you could just have that on screen, a politician should be a family man or woman. Interesting. I'd like to hear, I don't know whether I should start with the lady, or we'll come back. Okay, okay, when it comes to being a family man or woman, why do people associate leadership with a family? What is the trust issue? Because I hear there's a trust issue, yes. Rather, what is the connection? Again, I'd like to put that into context. Usually that is mostly here in Africa and in Kenya, because this is the kind of societies we come from, very close-knit societies, very social societies. And so someone who has a family is considered to be someone who's responsible, someone who's able to make the right decisions, to make the correct calculations. And so you're generally considered to be a mature person, which is not necessarily the case. You remember there was a lady, and I'm sorry I've forgotten her name, she was being employed as, I think, a head commissioner to Australia, or one of these things, a representative of Kenya. She was around 35, and in the panel, in the vetting panel, one of the questions one of the vetting panelists asked her, is you're not married, right? Do you want this job? And her question was, what does my marital status have to do with my qualifications? Because she was qualified on paper, her career, her experience, she had the qualifications, told that post. But this is a cultural aspect, this is a societal aspect, which is ingrained in us, which is completely difficult to do away with. And so it is a perception, which has been there for a long time. But increasingly, as people become more knowledgeable, as people expand their mind and perspectives get more learned, it is slowly changing, and we're having more younger people, unmarried people, like the former, I think, Senator Lesuda. Yes, she came into, you know, into governance, unmarried, and she was able to be voted for by a very conservative community, still unmarried. So this is a very long time held perception, but it is slowly changing. But there are some truths to it. I don't know, maybe the gentleman can tell us. Yes, it seems like something that has affected women, mostly. Okay. All right, let's hear from Kiberia then, Ms. Fiora. I think there is a common saying which goes by Charity Begins At Home, and this is something which people have interpreted in different dimensions, maybe to fit their own interest. But now, looking at the current situation in Kenya, we just last year, we had an MP by the name Nhenno, unmarried at 45 years. And also, we have the central back governor, who is still unmarried at, I think, 54 years. So we have also in history, we have Henry Charles Johnjo, unmarried at, I think, 62 years. But now, when you look at the context of men, and then you bring women, it's totally a different thing, because there's a lot of perception that we have not seen you exercise, maybe leadership authority in your family, because it's believed that's the basic unit of leadership, and it's where by every common Kenyan can come and witness your leadership. Maybe you have not had your CV in the corporate world, but the way you run your family, maybe your children, or the way they are brought in moral setup, we can be able to gauge your leadership. But as she said, it's something which we need to change the mind, because we have seen the people who have mentioned they have done incredible work in their constituency without being married. So it's not a matter of MP whether being married or not, to define the type of leadership which you are going to give to the people. Okay, Mr. Miwa, let's hear from you now. Thank you. I think I agree with Kaberia, and I agree with Monica, that the society just takes it as a norm that having passed through the stages of life, and you've now gone into marriage, you kind of become a person of your own, in the traditional sense, that now you can express yourself in leadership much better. But this is the truth from my view, that everybody is a family person, you are coming from a family, and you have family responsibilities, you have people, siblings, you have your father, your mother, your father, your grandparents, everybody. And I say everybody because everybody has a relative, or some kind of adopted family, or some very close friend, who is like family. I think everybody is family, and I think if we look at it that way, then you'll be less harsh to somebody who is delayed in marriage. And it could be a family problem. Maybe he is delayed in getting his own wife because he's taking care of his sibling. So he's actually a father and a married father. He is a father to his brother, his sister and other kind of thing. There could be an unmarried woman who is delayed at home because there are so many responsibilities to do at home. So again, it's unfair to judge her that you are not a family person, and this person could be the one who takes care of that family. So I think it's unfair to really just say, marriage certificate, you are okay, no marriage certificate, you are not okay. I think as we have said before, let us know who this candidate is, where you're coming from, what is your history, what have you been up to. Let us ask those questions. Then you'll discover that actually these people are actually family, actually they could be more family than married couple who is running around, not even with this family. Not even with this family, okay. All right, all right. So I think it's about till we conclude. But I'd like to finish with one which is, foresight, prudence, caution and judgment are the ethics of leadership. And foresight, there's something that you're doing for the young people when it comes to mentorship as a member of parliament for Berry South. And the students there have claimed that it's something we should incorporate in our programs and we should have a lesson or some sort every week in which they just get motivated, where they get to speak to motivational speakers, coaches, life coaches. So they don't give up. So I'd like to make sure we want to let us know whether what you are foreseeing for your constituents and for your students. Let me start from the background that in my constituency there is a baseline problem of that there is too much dropout because there's business of Mira in the area and there are people, students are dropping out of school to do business. And we think this is not right because they drop out of school before they are fully prepared. For instance, they drop out in Sunday 6, Sunday 7. These are real people who can take care of themselves. We'd like them to stay in school longer. We'd like to introduce them to another path that this is not just the only path you can have other paths. And therefore, I introduced this mentorship program and more importantly, peer mentorship where we bring in students in universities and colleges to talk to students in high school and we get high school students to go and talk to primary school and we get professionals to talk to the college students. And then you get to the whole school. Yes, yes, I saw you talking to the students. I gave commencement speech to the big schools. And one of them which I was doing last week was my biggest school which is Nyangua Secondary School, 1,300 kids. It was fantastic, a learning moment for me, a learning moment for them and I did this is where it's coming from. And I think we have to do, in this country we have to do that. We have to raise the next generation. And if there is no effort, there is no concerted effort, a deliberate effort to raise the next generation, then we only have ourselves to blame if we see them going south. And in my constituency, we have seen the tread of going south. And that is why we are rescuing. It's very exciting, really very exciting. And I would invite, I think, Beria is into those kind of programs to come over. I just have a weekend going through schools, having a nice time with our girls in school, our boys in schools. It's very, very exciting. One of the schools that we went last year, we were very surprised. We wanted to take 17 kids to university. That was their goal. And we talked to them. They have sent 27 to university this year. And now their goal is 40. And you can see them to see us. And it's very exciting, really very exciting. And I think all of us should be involved in this. Just go there, spend some time. It doesn't have to be long. You go during parade, they only have it for one hour. You get 15 minutes. It's enough to say something. And they'll catch up to it. Okay, okay. Beria, do you have any response towards this particular program? Because there are some questions that have come in for you. Yes. When we talk about matters of mentorship, it's something which has been so much in my heart and my experience for the past five years. I've worked exclusively on youth empowerment programs from Tujia Jirin KCB foundation to ALX program, which I spoke here another day, to even being a trainer for KOP, the program by the World Bank. And I've been going to the youth to talk to them. And I've seen a very worrying trend with young people, especially this generation. The problem is actually there are so many of them, they have dived so deep in matters of betting and all that. It's actually a bigger even crisis than even the other crisis we think of. And so we've been doing intervention programs like we've gone to the university, have gone to high schools to talk to the people, telling them that there are alternatives. And when we're talking about leadership, leadership is not about creating followers. It's about creating leaders. I'm so much impressed by what Moshmiwa is doing because it's giving the faster the experience. There's a lot to learn from him, from his experiences. And when people get a chance to talk to Moshmiwa at the ground level, they get a lot of motivation. So I think this is something which we need to adopt, even not at constituency level, even the professionals. They don't need to sit back in office, keep their experiences and all that to themselves. Because we've seen people with very touching stories, some they only post them on social media maybe, but they don't go to the ground. Those primary school kids are not on social media. Once we talk to them and tell them I come from a poor family like you, did not get school fees like you, but look at me right now. This is the type of stories we need and it's maybe something which we can explore further and it will totally change the face of the country. All right, great. I can't take away or subtract anything from that. You see if they do. All right, Monica, do you have anything to say because there are some questions that are coming out? I think it's absolutely incredible and I must say I'm completely impressed by having such kind of leadership. This is a very leadership that we are looking for in this country and this is that kind of mentorship the next generation is absolutely important because it's children who are going to make up this country, make up the composition of this country in the future, which you want it to be of excellence and I think that is absolutely wonderful and it's interesting that all of us here are involved in those activities and also involved in teaching international relations in public schools through our organization so we are trying to connect these children with what is here and what is outside because the world right now as it is, is globalised and so this caring of the future generation that has come out in this panel is absolutely encouraging. All right, thank you very much. I'm glad to hear that. It feels very nice when you're encouraging that young people somewhere in this country. I'm only 25 by the way. Anyway, it's about time I read some of your feedbacks that Mahesh Miwa, there are questions for you. So Ember County has the Seven Forks Dam and produced electricity and Bayer constituents do not benefit from it because most of the homesteads are not connected to electricity. Water is a problem in Bayer yet we have the dams. How is Mahesh Miwa planning to help these people? That is one question. Then the other ones, because I wanted to answer them together that one is how are you planning when it comes to the Muaya National Reserve which is an attraction site for tourism and its constituency. Okay. And it's in his constituency. I think he's saying that this Muaya National Reserve is in your constituency. So what is the plan? That is Chris from Makima Bayer. Wow, thank you so much for watching. So yes, please tell me about it. Thank you. Let me start by saying what the Chris is saying. He's absolutely right. We have serious, serious marginalization problem. The Seven Forks Dam. We have Masinga Dam, Kamburu Dam, Kitaru Dam, Kedaruma Dam, Kambere Dam, five dams in one constituency. And then in between, in the dam area we have the Muaya game reserve which nobody visits. And I always complain that my elephants are born there in the bush. They're waiting to be photographed by visitors. They die before anybody takes their photograph. And I was starting a campaign to go and look for a hyena which is a demig to bury and photograph it because otherwise all bury hyenas borrow bury citizens of bury. And become extinct before anybody So you want to have pictures at least? At least pictures. What's the people of Embu County go to the park and photograph? At least it will be a follow up. We can have the school trips and things like that. So your school trips might be coming? I want the school trips to go. I want parties to go. I want people to discover what is right there under their nose. There are over 175 elephants in a very small park. Actually they are overpopulated and they are pushing each other there. Nobody even goes there and we are reviving that. I'm doing something about that. For the water. The tragedy is actually between dams from Kamburu Dam for instance to Gitaru Dam. It goes underground. So the river is dry between the dams. Then from that dam to the next dam the river is dry. So there is no water. We have been dispossessed. Hilda is a question of being dispossessed disinherited. It's a very sad situation. So what we have done to address it first of all we want to restore the watering points which were there traditionally. So we pump water from the dams so that people can access water in the villages. The way they used to access it when the river had water. That is one. Secondly, a comprehensive plan to have treated clean water in every home in Bere South. Already we had guests there the Deputy President came there and this year we have put 500 million to start that project and so we are moving very very fast into that. We must have water in Bere South. We have the biggest river in Kenya River Tana passes through two tributaries passes through the same constituency and yet we don't have water. That is not acceptable. So we are doing something about that and by next year by next year when the budgets come because we've just started people begin to see what we are doing with the water. So yes, there are problems they are damage, they have been there for a very long time and to me we've been dispossessed. We produce electricity we don't have it. For the electricity we get the normal quarter for rural electrification which is about 30 million a year. But my constituency is half of Bere County it is so large it's larger than the other three constituencies put together. So again it's unfair to give us a quarter same as Ebu Town which is full of electricity. Where do they take transformers? So again we are having that conversation saying no. You have to have some intervention because this community was dispossessed when you created these dams so in a way of paying back CSR then you have to give us more. We've done two services and the reports are underway for that program. So they can expect some change? Yes they can expect some change. Actually they should not expect some change. We are there to change lives we are going to change lives we are going to put more money in their pockets we are going to have better lifestyle we are going to have more roads we are going to have water we are going to be like any other Kenyan living in Nairobi or any other place you just prepare for a transformation no change. Okay I like that. Prepare for a transformation. As you've heard from Hejimewa himself Bere South MP he has been with us in studio and he can answer some of the tough questions you've thrown to him today. Thank you so much for honoring the Y254 family with your presence. Thank you so much for answering the questions of the young people. For my analysts today Monika Thank you so much for coming.
