    "content": "Coming to the substance of the day, I commend the President for his Speech. The President’s Speech touched on many fundamental issues concerning Kenyans. It did well on the aspect of our Constitution. We all have a duty to respect our Constitution. As Members of Parliament, we took an oath to adhere to, and respect, our Constitution. He gave his own example whereby even though he felt the verdict of the Supreme Court was not fair, he did agree to respect our Constitution and, as a result, is willing to go back for his re-election on 17th October. He also did touch on the independence of our institutions whereby he said even though under our Constitution these are old independent institutions with independent functions as enshrined in our Constitution as per their functions, we also have to work together for the common good of the Kenyan society. This is because we all serve the same nation and Government and hence as we respect and jealously guard our independence, we must also work together to ensure that we serve the Kenyan people."
