"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, in the African setup, ethnicity at Independence was pushed under the rug. There are those who were the intellectuals at the time who felt that talking about tribes and ethnicity was outmoded and old fashioned. There were those who felt, as nationalists, that talking about tribes was dividing the Africans and letting the Mzungu rule by dividing them. But the Constitution looks at this right in the eye and determines that we must look at this issue and we must decide how to ensure that we have equitable distribution of resources and we have good management of public finances for everybody’s benefit."
