    "content": "Kibaki, in his address, after he won reelection and booed by the success of his first term that led to the rapid growth of the economy, addressed us. The thing he spoke to up to this day, changed Equity Bank. President Kibaki spoke to the issue of the SACCOs and Societies Bill which he brought. That Bill introduced regulations and permission to allow SACCOs in taking deposits and continue giving loans. In the process, Peter Munga’s Society SACCO which I think was very active in Murang’a changed into Equity Bank. The Equity Bank is today the single largest Bank in East and Central Africa. That shows what Parliament can do. It shows the opportunities that we can open this country to if we pursue legislation. I say this because this afternoon’s proceedings have been very nice. They have been so orderly. You have been so much in control. So much in control that the people who have been actually disrupting the proceedings are not in the House because they wanted to be allowed to continue misbehaving. I beg to reply, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
