"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I am a little mesmerised by the defence that the Leader of the Minority Party has put up. The only unfortunate thing is that he is trying to incite or excite ethnic feelings, but the people of Kenya are more intelligent than that today. The people of Kenya know that people are appointed and elected to offices on merit. The people of Kenya elected a President on merit and on the basis of his ability and the manifesto he sold and his vision for the people of Kenya. It was not on the basis of his ethnicity. Therefore, I encourage the Leader of the Minority Party to acquaint himself and bring himself up to speed to where the majority of Kenyans are. The majority of Kenyans do not look at us on the basis of our ethnicities but by the content of our heads and how we can apply that to serve them. I support the appointment of Hon. Shadrack Mose not on the basis of his ethnicity. If anything, if I listened to what the Leader of the Minority Party was saying, Hon. Shadrack Mose will be a Principal Secretary per se because he will be the Accounting Officer in the The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
