    "content": "That is why this weekend the President went to Ukambani to launch serious road projects which were never there. My colleagues from that region were crying. Looking at my friend, Hon. Jessica, I never thought she can do a serious demonstration. She did the mother of all demonstrations. Today, I am sure she is happy because, at least, the President has listened to her and this weekend, many roads have been launched in Ukambani. This is a Government that does without discrimination. We build roads in Western, Nyanza, Central, North Eastern, Eastern and Coast regions. At the Coast, we are doing roads from Taita Taveta, Voi up to Tanzania. That is why we better discuss development and stop inciting our people to war. We have an obligation as leaders to talk to our friends. We can see incitement, hate speech and hatred outside there. We expected cattle rustlers, thieves and criminals to be arrested, but we do not want Hon. Members to be taken to the Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI) everyday on allegations that they made hate speeches. I am sure all of us sitting here will indulge our colleagues and tell them to let us live up to that which we have been elected to do. We have been elected as Hon. Members. That was just to make sure we send a message to our colleagues. I am sure the Jubilee Administration is on track and the next elections will be between those who do what they have promised; those who build roads, health facilities, improve the agricultural sector, give our children laptops and those who improve security against those who are known for rhetoric that does not change the lives of Kenyans. With those many remarks, I beg to move and ask the Vice Chair of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing, an engineer and a former PS of Public Works and Roads to second."
