    "content": "Hon. Speaker, the President spoke to the mass appeal of the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA) that he campaigned on. Many of us in Kenya Kwanza campaigned on the same model. I appreciate that the President re-affirmed his commitment and that of his administration to bring the national values and principles of governance to life. This would significantly enhance the well-being of each Kenyan and promote the unity, stability, security and development of our country. In his exposition, the President took us back to a struggling economy that he found in place. He said that we had begun implementation of the mandate to transform Kenya’s economy from the bottom to up under extremely difficult circumstances. The President was quick to say that he would not excuse failure or justify inability or omission to do necessary work; rather he emphasised the significance of the progress made so far. He underscored the possibility of transformation under very daunting conditions. He expressed the well-founded confidence that when sufficient progress is made, as a nation, we shall do much more in delivering the Kenya we want for our generation and posterity.
