    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. First, I want to take this opportunity to thank the President of the United States of America for having taken time and spent three days in our country. This was not just appreciated within Nairobi. For some of us who were in the constituencies, we followed it through television. You would go to the market centre and you would find everybody is following very keenly. They wanted to hear what President Obama would say. We also want to congratulate the Head of State of the Republic of Kenya Hon. Uhuru Kenyatta, for the way he handled many of the issues, especially issues to do with gays which, for most of those who are in the religious sector, was a thorny issue. The way he answered it put that case to rest because the issue of gay, as he put it, is a non-issue for us now. We have issues that are facing our country. We have hunger, insecurity and many other issues. That was loud and clear. One of the other key issues we learnt as a country, as President Obama put it very clearly is that, for us as a nation, we must look for solutions for our issues. When others raised the issue of devolution, it is for us to look at it how best devolution can work for us."
