    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to say loud and clear here that the Kenyans who are suffering out there will live to haunt all of us here. From now on, as my colleague from Saboti said, we must accelerate our pace as a Parliament, a leadership and a people to get people back to their homes. As a leadership, we must engage in reconciliation and reconciliatory talk. We must, as a leadership, be seen to narrow the gap between us. We must, as a leadership, stop thinking that because I come from Western Province, I have a say in who lives in Western Province. We must, as a leadership, encourage Kenyans to live with and mingle with each other. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we must, as a leadership, be able not to put a veneer of unity because it suits us. We must know--- I have heard this here before. There is no Kenyan individual or community that is in this country by invitation. Every individual and community is here as of right. That right is protected by the law. That right is protected by the Constitution. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if there is any leader in this House, or elsewhere, who has had a hand in the causing of our brothers and sisters to live like refugees in their own country, I urge them to repent and seek forgiveness from the people of this country."
