"content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this chance. At the outset, it is important to also discuss the soft side of our country. The country we call Kenya, in its definition, is simply defined by its boundaries. I say this because, many times, we confuse several things. One is the distinction between the country, the Republic, the nation, the Government and the State. What we call a country is just the area defined by the boundaries where Kenya lies. Another function that defines what the State is involves the State apparatus and the institutions of governance, which predominantly consist of the institutions that guarantee the rule of law and accountability. The rule of law is, of course, upheld by the Judiciary, while accountability is through democracy in a House like the Legislature, and a functional modern State is defined by the Executive."
