    "content": "Mr. Temporary Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a very critical issue and I think we just need to stop being casual. There is a problem of our beautiful country, that leadership loves to be casual. We need to stop being casual about so many of the issues which affect our country. I believe that we need to look at northern Kenya differently. We need to see northern Kenya as an area that we can develop and protect and we must make sure that our neighbours understand what our position is in the region. We have lost our credibility in this region! The reason is very simple; we do not even follow our national policy on diplomacy. There are many issues which Kenya has been nursing; the issue of Somalia, the Sudan, the Great Lakes Initiative and the Riparian States - where you find our neighbours are now going to Egypt to negotiate agreements individually and disregarding what the East Africa Community (EAC) thinks. These are matters that we must look at seriously for Kenya to take its stand and position in this region."
