"content": "friend of mine and colleague, hon. Ethuro, is, indeed, a weighty matter. At a personal level, I would like to, first of all, say that I support this Motion. I adopt the beautiful words that have been brought forth by my Acting Minister, Prof. Saitoti, who has ably put the Government position on what we feel about the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA). Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to make just a few clarifications as I try to make my emphasis as to what the situation in North and South Sudan is all about. First, Kenya is the one that mothered the CPA. Kenya is the country that brought the peace in Sudan. Kenya, indeed, is the country that must maintain neutrality. But the issue of Sudan is a moral issue and not a religious or any other issue. The people of South Sudan have been given the mandate to make a choice. Yes, indeed, we went to Southern Sudan, but in our private capacities. We never went to Southern Sudan as Government officers. I never went there as the Assistant Minister for Foreign Affairs. Number two, the Kenyan Government never spent a penny to take any of the MPs to Southern Sudan. We never spent any money on air tickets or per diem or anything else."
