    "content": "This further affirms that he reinforces the Jubilee Coalition commitment to the realization of a full constitutional democracy in our country. Further again, the President’s Speech and the legislative agenda that he put to the House yesterday affirms that Kenya has now a pure presidential system. Days are gone when Parliamentary Bills used to be brought to this House by Ministries. Days are gone when the Government used to lobby here and Members of Parliament were also Ministers. The legislative agenda of this House will now come through the Speaker, the Leader of the Majority Party and the Leader of the Minority Party. As we debate the President’s Speech, let me encourage Members to embrace a bipartisan approach and rise above party partisans for the sake of changing the lives of our people. I want to thank His Excellency the President for his official Speech during the State Opening of Parliament. This Speech has captured the aspirations of the people of Kenya as it sets out the agenda of development for the next five years. For the first time in the history of this country we have a young digital President, a President who has energy and time. We have a President and a Deputy President who want to work for the people unlike the old scenario."
