Coming back to the President’s Speech particularly between paragraphs 5 and 7, I am encouraged a lot about the confidence that Kenyans have in Parliament and the Executive.

He also mentioned the broad-based support the Government has in 39 counties having achieved 25 per cent in the 35 counties. His Excellency reminded us, and maybe this is a challenge to us, that the confidence shown in us The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
