    "content": "I will also to invite people to read Article 234 about the Public Service Commission and how they are supposed to promote the values and principles of this nation. Again, you cannot do that if we are not able to communicate within public offices. It is also important that as we continue - I do not want to say much - to acknowledge that while vernacular languages have been used to communicate faster among communities, it is now clear to us that they have also been used for doublespeak. You say one thing when you are talking in Kiswahili and English and you say another when you go to speak in your mother tongue. These are issues that we must remain awake to. If we do not, then we will have ourselves to blame. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I must say that I did not know that people really use their mother tongues much because I went to schools that had people from all communities. I think those people who are opposing this Motion have a lot to do with even where they went to school. They may have been to schools which were just within their own neighbourhoods. They went to universities within the same neighbourhood and married within the same neighbourhood. This in-breeding is not going to help us as a nation. We neeed to accommodate others and be able to move on as a nation. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
