    "content": "As a lawyer and a person who witnessed the birth of the 2010 Constitution, I strongly believe that Kenya belongs to all the 42 plus tribes. What has disturbed me for the two days I have sat here is this: What will happen to my community in Kisii and Nyamira if we ran our Government through this theory of shareholding? As I speak tonight, the people of the two counties of Omogusii; Nyamira and Kisii are victims of that theory of shareholding. That community called Omogusii does not even have even a single Principal Secretary serving in the Government. As I speak this evening, the Omogusii people have been the biggest victims of this theory of shareholding. The Constitution that we enacted in 2010, in Article 27 clearly states that we should not discriminate. I hope when I cast my vote tonight, I will be sending a message from the people of Nyamira that a government is formed for all the tribes in the Republic of Kenya. I have agonized on the issues that have been brought in this Motion, touching on the widow and the children of the late Governor for Nyeri, Gachagua. I wondered if adverse statements and inferences have been made touching on the conduct of the Deputy President against the widow of the former governor and the children of the late governor who are the nephews of the Deputy President; I ask as a father, why did the widow and the children of the late governor not swear an affidavit to dispel all the things that have been said against the scheme of swindling those children. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
