"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to plead with the Minister. The Kisumu Airport has been constructed by foreigners. The Kisumu Airport is now employing staff that is hostile to the locals. We are told these things because we come from there. What would be wrong with the Minister allowing whoever has this contract to hold it but employ the locals? Could the Minister think twice because these issues have even led us to butcher one another in the recent past? What the people of Kisumu are saying about what is happening at the airport is the exact thing that has fueled ethnic hatred in this country that led us to bloodletting in 2007. Could the Minister just allow the person to hold the contract but employ our local people because people look at the airport as being brought by the foreigners and it is meant for foreigners who work there? Tension is brewing and it will erupt. Let the Minister do something because that is within his reach. Please, help us to guide this country so that people can live together. There is nothing wrong with a foreigner owning that contract but there is everything wrong with him coming there and doing things including sweeping and cleaning that even our dogs could do even if our people could not do."
