"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we did not hear much about the President’s plan of unifying the nation and ensuring that national values and principles that are laid out in the Constitution are observed. I hope that when the President comes for his first formal address to Parliament, he will be true to his calling as the symbol of the national unity and refrain from throwing barbs at his opponents, and will see himself as the father of all the 50 million Kenyans. Nobody in this country should be punished for their political choices. I am proudly on the Minority Side and will proudly play my role as an opposition Senator. However, the people of Homa Bay should never be in the opposition. It is the elected leadership of Homa Bay that should be in the opposition. I hope that this kind of thinking will permeate not just the House, but the Presidency in order to remember that the political choices that the Homa Bay people made should not be criminalized."
