    "content": "Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I am very happy with the contribution of Sen. (Dr.) Zani regarding the need to legislate. The general grundnorm is that public participation of communities must be there because it is enshrined in the Constitution. The general principle is that Government at national and county levels, and this is national level government, is the trustee of people’s interests. In fact, Government exercises this authority on behalf of the people and must do so without even waiting for the people to be organised. I wanted to inform my sister that in spite of the absence of specific and prescriptive legislation, the grundnorm of this nation which is the Constitution obligates Government to act in the best interest of citizens of this country in preference to any busybody or foreigner. There is already a constitutional decree, but for reasons that we do not know, that Ministry is trying to give preference to some other people who do not live or die here. They take it away and disappear to borders we do not know. If you go there, my sister, you will be thrown back to this country empty handed."
