What I wanted to say is that the proposal that I had to amend this clause was in very good faith. However, an hon. Member has come to me and told me that, unfortunately, I come from Siaya County which has the highest density of professors per kilometre square and that I am thinking only in terms of Siaya County and discriminating against the rest of the country. In that spirit, I meant it well for Kenya and not just Siaya County. As much as I appreciate that that is good for us, I also appreciate that there are parts of this country that need affirmative action. So, in that spirit, I wish to withdraw the proposed amendment."}
