"content": "I sat here all morning and I never got a chance. So, I wish that we would have found a way to allow all Kenyan citizens as patriots the right to own, carry and fly a flag because on the economic sense of it, we would have created an industry of flag production and replacements. Our young people do not have jobs. The opportunity to sell a flag to a market of 40 million people would occur. Now we have restricted these flags. I know the Members of this House like hon. Duale who wanted the Cabinet Secretaries to fly a flag. If we had allowed all Kenyans to fly the flag, his needs would have been met, but we would have created jobs and boosted our economy by allowing more people to sell and replace flags. When your flag looks dirty, you are required to buy a new one and have a sweet nice flag. We would have been pushing the economy of Kenya forward. But by restricting this flag like we have done, it looks like at first we were fighting the governors and then next, we have some supremacy issues."
