    "content": "I know we have men and women in Ras Kamboni who do not sleep to ensure that we have peace in this country. When I see our leaders in Nairobi rushing to Kibera and other places vomiting words which suggest that our country is in trouble and at war, I feel it. This is because I know that the peace we have in this country is not being enjoyed by our neighbouring countries. It is unfortunate that our colleagues are not here with us today to first and foremost know that in this 12th Parliament, some serious minds have come in. We mean business when we say we need peace in this country. We are not going to sleep until we shut up those who want to interrupt the peace in this country. Our President dwelt a lot on peace and I want to congratulate him for singling out that we need peace. He said that unless all of us uphold peace, this country will lose all the gains that we have made over time. I really feel for my constituents who were about to enjoy some fruits of good leadership by our President. They have been waiting for so long to benefit from the waters of Thiba Dam, which is intended to be the source of irrigation water to the people of Mwea. It will enable them to produce more rice to feed this country by over 70 per cent."
