"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and I personally have taken up this issue with the United States Embassy over the despicable and disrespectful manner that Kenyans are treated at their embassy when they are looking for visas. I will issue a Press statement very soon but I also request hon. Members to support us on this process. I request the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations Members to meet me as a matter of urgency so that I can update them on some of the steps that I have personally taken. However, I appeal to hon. Members to be proud of being Kenyans. There is a culture in this country today, where we turn up and suck up to foreign missions. We line up with cards in our hands at their residences every time they invite us for cocktail parties to eat samosa and meat in skewers. Whether you are in the Government or in the Opposition, we should uphold our dignity. We should not cheer up some of those countries as they abuse our motherland and Government."
