    "content": "There is also the issue of political parties where he said that we should have political parties that have a national outlook, that are competitive, that will advocate for issue-based ideologies and issue-based politics. I think that was very good. He also assured this country during his Address that there is going to be free and fair elections, whether this year or next year. The elections are going to be free and fair. He has repeatedly given that assurance to this country. He also promised in this House and also in so many other occasions that there will be a smooth transition. He repeatedly said that leadership that will be elected by the people of this country should continue the gains of his administration. The biggest of it is national cohesion; putting this country together. I remember the way he expressed the need to have a unitary State, one Kenya. Even if we have devolution through counties, we should not mistake our counties to mean independent countries. Otherwise, we will have 47 sub-countries in this country. That was ably said by His Excellency the President. He reiterated that we should, as leaders, always advocate for unity, cohesion, one country and one people."
