    "content": "What we wish to tell you, Hon. Speaker is that, you now hold a revered position, a position which begins with Mt. Kenya East, comes to the entire Mt. Kenya region and by extension, it goes to the entire country. Kenyans would be watching you because you have to give them guidance and leadership in matters that are very difficult in consonance with the norms and practices of the Njuri-Ncheke which include peace-making, unity and ensuring togetherness in communities. Therefore, as you move forward to step into those shoes, you have to be prepared to discharge those duties. We know very well that in spite the fact that there were no political overtones in the coronation, we have since heard many things said about it on what is going to happen and what will not. I advise you to be careful not to be yoked with either some presidential candidates or other persons who do not have a very bright future especially in terms of the presidency, the reason being that you are number three and Kenyans look forward to your promotion from number three to possibly number two or number one. However, that can only be a reality if we make the right choices away from influen ces which do not resonate with the will of the people. Let the will of the people of Kenya be upon you as you endeavour to move forward to unite this country and give us leadership. I congratulate you, Hon. Speaker."
