    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I congratulate Mr. M. Kilonzo, I want to also congratulate Mr. Githae for joining the Cabinet, and Assistant Minister, Mr. Nguyai, on his appointment. Wherever we find ourselves able to serve this nation, let us do so with distinction. I want to join the people of Shinyalu in mourning the departure of their Member of Parliament, who passed on so shortly after they brought him to this august House, obviously with very high hopes. We wish them fortitude at this time of mourning. Obviously, the country is standing together with them. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, let also appreciate the challenges that the President threw at us. He said:- “Mr. Speaker, as can be seen, I am confident that the Grand Coalition Government is making good progress in managing the challenges facing our nation. The Government has the necessary capacity to lead Kenyans out of the current situation. We have the political will---” We have the political will and the social economic direction as articulated in our Vision 2030. However, I urge Kenyans to spend more time and energy on economic and social development issues than non-productive politics. Hon. Members have expressed themselves a lot on this matter. We spend a lot of time fighting each other and spreading despondency, fear and hopelessness to our people. That is why I want to say, as I have always said, that it is time to give Kenyans hope."
