"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I want to be brief. When Sen. Sakaja becomes governor, we want an organized city. We want Kenyatta Avenue organized in such a way that people can come and shop at 9 p.m. We want security, that people can take a walk in Uhuru Park, or you can buy anything in the city when you cannot sleep. It is only in Nairobi where when the sun goes down, the thieves come up and you go to sleep. What sort of a city operates like that? Our hawkers should have numbers, be registered and have name tags. I take pride in the people who sell vegetables. I take pride in my newspaper vendors. When my father started his practice in Machakos in 1975, there was a gentleman who sold newspapers outside the building where Kilonzo and Company was. Since my father was hardworking, he ended up buying the building. When I renovated that building, I gave him space to vend his newspapers. That old man gives me hope. I think that we have become a society of cannibals. The county city council officers are not inspecting. Their work is just to harass these people who do normal business. When I was at the school of law, we used to have a place called Serena B. I do not know whether Sen. Sakaja knows what that is. It was somewhere along Procession"
