    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, we appreciate the coming of President Obama to Kenya but as we all know, his tenure is coming to an end next year. Luckily, in that part of the world, people do not try to manufacture a third or fourth term like in this region. It would be very unfortunate, going by precedence that President Obama does not come to Kenya on an official state visit. I want a clarification whether the Government of Kenya has actually sought and given invitation for President Obama to come to Kenya on an official visit. As you know, the USA has produced many presidents with Irish extraction going beyond J.F. Kennedy. One of the most memorable visits that he made was his visit to Ireland. There have been other presidents from that part of the world like Ronald Reagan and Clinton. It would have been more appropriate if we were told that the Government of Kenya has indeed taken steps to invite President Obama to come to Kenya on an official state visit so that the kind of things the Senator for Nyeri is talking about would then be possible. The way the programme is, it would appear that he may not even step in State House."
