    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. We know the kind of problems this country has gone through from bad judgements by certain judges. Some of them have been sacked because of corruption. Let us not throw the baby with the bath water because of politics. Political issues will be sorted out politically, but issues that that are going to make this country economically, politically and socially stable must be looked at in a bipartisan manner and in a way that is led by wisdom. This country is bigger than all of us. Today you may think this Bill is supported by the President and the former Prime Minister, Raila Odingo, but that is just today. This Bill is supposed to cure issues that this country has suffered from for the last 50 years. On inclusivity, we have been having a Government that for the last eight years has been run by two people and two communities. If you look at the establishment in Government in the first term of Jubilee Government, one person was employed from Mount Kenya and the other from Eldoret. You could not see any other names. If the BBI Bill goes through, we will have an inclusive Government where we will have people from different communities, the President, the Deputy President, the Prime Minister and two Deputy Prime Ministers. I have to see a face of somebody I think is my person in that Government. Otherwise, if we continue the way we are… If you can remember, we declared two states in this country, the republic of something and the Kenyan. We were almost going away. Those are the ills that this Bill wants to cure. I urge this House to support it. Let us not forget where we have come from. Let us not be people who do not know where they are going. With those few remarks, I support."
