"content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand here equally to support this Motion. I think the Mover of this Motion was very clear. I want to congratulate the Assistant Minister who, also, has been very eloquent and very clear. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, what is happening in this country today is doublespeak. Politicians know how to doublespeak. When they are on this side, they support the Opposition. When they are in the comfort zone, they do not want the Opposition! We want to say that there is no government which can perform its work without an effective Official Opposition. That is what we are asking for today. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I have heard many people and leaders say that we should consult and that Backbenchers should take a role of being the Official Opposition even without there being legislation. Never again should Kenyans put trust in an individual! They should put trust into institutions!"
