    "content": "Indeed, this one explains why His Excellency the President decided to come and address this House. In line with Article 1 of the Constitution, the sovereign power belongs to the people of Kenya which can be exercised directly or indirectly through their democratically elected leaders. This House represents the democratically elected leaders of this country and it was very good for His Excellency to come and address it here. This is because he knew he was addressing people in line with Article 1 of the Constitution and I want to thank him for that. On our CORD side, we have no problem. We liked everything that went on well. We are happy about the peace and security but the only caution we want to give is that when His Excellency the President came back, the security was worrying. He was on the same car with the Deputy President. It was very dangerous. I am calling upon the security team that such a thing should not happen again. I am assuming, if the Al Shabaab would have done something, what would have happened? Hon. Speaker, we are here as Kenyans. We belong to this country and we love the peace and stability. We thank His Excellency the President for going to The Hague and respecting the rule of law. Thank you, hon. Speaker and we support."
