    "content": "If you asked me about how many others spoke--- Superpowers spoke about Kenya. I did not know that they knew the location of Kenya. But now, I know that America knows where Kenya is. Britain was anxious to settle that crisis. I am telling you that Germany, France and all the other superpowers spoke about Kenya. They wanted Kenya to be stable and to prosper. Even China spoke - not negatively. Ghana produced two distinguished men - one is the current President and the other is their son, who is the former UN Secretary-General. Everybody contributed to the goodwill that we now enjoy in this country. The law that we are passing this afternoon will do two or three major things. We have made a great stride in having a new jurisprudence in this country. We have, for the first time, described political parties and their powers in the Constitution. We only used to say: \"Kenya shall be a multiparty democracy.\" But we never said what political parties will do. However, for the first time, this amendment does something about that. For the first time, power has been shared between the Executive and this House. That is because this House will, first, make the law and have the Chief Executive sit with us here so that we, sometimes, ask him serious Questions. Of course, if he does not behave well, we will vote him out! That is very sweet! Mr. Kajwang can have the power to vote out a Prime Minister! That is very nice!"
