"content": "I will be consistent, and I shall remain so. It is not because I do not like the policies laid down by the Kenya Kwanza Government. I am in this House to pursue the interests of the people I represent. They have priorities. They understand the mathematics of making money from the farms and improving their livelihoods. This Bill's spirit was to dignify how we live and make housing affordable and accessible in line with Article 43 of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010. I am excited because the Kenya courts found it worth giving a clear and sober direction over the existence of a law that overlooked the need to align ourselves with the Constitution of Kenya, 2010. When I speak about dignity, you can only be dignified if you are living in a house that the community where you live appreciates as a home. It is where your in-laws can come in, enjoy a cup of tea, mursik, or uji, and then get an opportunity to enjoy the sunlight. I do not expect that these blocks of flats we propose to construct in our homesteads will dignify our communities' lives. In fact, they will disfranchise the cultural set-ups in our backyards."
