    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, allow me to get embarrassed on behalf of Sen. Dullo for coming to read such a statement to this House. Mr. Speaker, Sir, when she tells this House that we lost nothing, is she aware that even an image loss is a loss? A country puts its President in the air and casually turns back and then we are told that we lost nothing. Since that incident, we have had three contradictory statements coming from the Executive. We were told that the plane turned back because it was going to fly over Yemen, which was a warzone. The war in Yemen did not break out that night. Yemen has been on fire for the last several years. Later, we were told that it was not Yemen, but Ethiopia that made it difficult for the plane to proceed and yet we know that planes are flying in and out of Kenya over Yemen. In fact, yesterday but one, Sen. Orengo and I came on an Emirates aircraft from Dubai. We flew directly over Yemen. Could the Vice-Chairperson tell this House if it is not a fact that those who lured the President to go to this meeting in Los Angeles did not disclose to him that a notorious Wall Street criminal, who has even been to jail, was the one who was on the forefront of organizing this meeting and they realized that at the last minute? To save the President embarrassment, they turned round midair to come back to Kenya and start duping Kenyans that it is because there was conflict in Yemen, which everybody knew has been there for the last three years."
