    "content": "I support this Motion greatly though I have some reservations concerning a few things that I want to mention. First, I want to say that the silence of the Executive and particularly the silence of the President and his: “Handshake” partner is so loud in this matter. Perhaps we are pinning down some few fellows as sacrificial lambs. Why are they silent at this particular moment when in the midst of COVID-19, the price of fuel is skyrocketing? People are suffering. This will lead to the worst crisis we have ever had. Eventually the prices of food will go up. The President and his handshake partner are so silent. Their silence is so loud. They are so insensitive and I want to equate it to the time of the French Revolution when Queen Marie Antoinette was so insensitive to the feelings of the people to the point that she was suggesting that they should eat cakes that were more expensive than bread, which was lacking. Why is the Executive so silent to the suffering hustlers? Why is the President so silent? The President should come out so loudly and save Kenyans. He is aware of the problem but he is quiet in State House when people are suffering. There are so many Kenyans at this point in time who cannot travel in search of their daily bread or take their children to school. There is another problem in the Ministry of Education. The CBC is becoming so expensive and very difficult to handle. I want to say that the President should come loud on this. He should say something about the suffering of Kenyans. Why is the Executive, particularly the President, and his “Handshake” partner so silent when Kenyans are suffering? I support this Motion."
