"content": "For those who are on the other side, I was also there one day and I know how dictatorial it is on that side. Let us be independent and make decisions that will build our country. We should not allow this House to be misused by dictators who are outside but want to run the affairs of this House. If this country burns because of a poor legislation that we make here, citizens will not blame Uhuru Kenyatta or Raila Odinga but Members of this House. Let us legislate for posterity and not for those people because one day you might stand a chance of holding those positions. You will not want to lead a country that has been dictated to until you do not even know the head or the tail. Let us not run this House from outside but from inside. However, we must listen to the views of the people who sent us here. We must also show leadership that we can listen but still legislate for the good of the country."
