    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the list goes on and on. This scenario also applies to the appointment of District Commissioners (DCs). Out of 71 DCs, before the appointment of the new DCs, 38 DCs are from the Mount Kenya region. That is something to be ashamed of as a Government. This Government calls itself a \"Government of National Unity\". That is not reflective of national unity. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we need to address these issues. Even if the economy was doing well ten fold, we also need to have tribal harmony. What has bedeviled this country since Independence is unfair distribution of jobs and resources. Nobody can say that all these people have been appointed fairly. If you wanted a good Head of Public Service and Secretary to 134 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES March 27, 2007 the Cabinet from West Pokot District, you would find a Kenyan with Mr. Mwaura's credentials. So, we must say, if we want a future, that some of the leaders perpetrating tribalism are on their way out. One leg is already in the grave and the other one is calling in the one which is out. So, we want to stay in this country for a long time. Lastly---"
