"content": " Hon. Temporary Speaker, I did not want to quote names, but I am saying it is a nomination that is welcome. So that for somebody like me who comes from North Eastern, I will have the hope of running for presidency one day. We have seen these seats rotate in the same place. This is an agenda that I welcome. I will not want to name names. As somebody who holds the vision of this country, I know this will rattle feathers but I welcome a Government of national unity so that the agenda moves forward to even having a presidency that rotates. That every community in this country and every young person can dream to become a president one day. This agenda, a Government of national unity, is of help to us for the stability of this country and even for accountability. It does not mean that we will still sit back and watch corruption happen. It means we have a chance in the table to question so that Kenyans can have good governance. Allow me to just quote something that happened historically. The former President of the United States of America, Hon. Obama, ran for presidency against Hillary Clinton but, as soon as he won, he welcomed her to join his Government. That way, they delivered to the people. The Kenyan system is one of winner-take-it-all. If one group wins, the other group with good visions is left out. As Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Coalition Party, we had a very good policy document and stance to support this country. If this is brought on board, we will help every faction and move from tribalism. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
