    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I will not spent a lot of time because time is limited. First, I would like to comment on what Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. said about President Obama’s speech. The record of the entire visit needs to be here so that we can always read it. The coming of the President of the United States of America (USA) was a blessing to us. We all know that. He did not bring or suggest any problem to us. He just came to wish that God could touch us so that we understand the problem the country has and agree to deal with it. What did we learn from his trip? I learnt that there is a lot that we can do in this country, but we are not doing it because of our weaknesses in various areas. The other point is that Kenya has a lot of potential in the world. He reminded us that if we behave in a manner that leaders are expected to, and follow the reasons why we were elected, we shall come out as responsible leaders and our country will enjoy seeing us moving around. It was important for a person such as him of that level to come and lecture Kenyans who find it difficult to listen. They cannot give up their interests for money for the sake of wisdom. This is a big problem. For Kenyans, the quest for wisdom is a problem. Once one becomes so enlightened and knowledgeable, he or she is set aside. That is how Kenyans are. The whole world has a lot of faith in Kenya. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
