    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute for the first time in the 12th Parliament. On the Presidential Speech, the President was very clear that he wants this country to be united. He was very clear that he wants this country to be developed so that we can move to the next stage, from the Third World to the First World. Hon. Speaker, what the President is asking Kenyans to do is not something which has not happened elsewhere. For those who know how Singapore jumped from a Third World country to First World country with no or little resources can support the President in his endeavour to make this country develop. If you look at China’s case, within a period of 20 years it moved from a Third World to a First World country. We can also move from a Third World country in the next five years or in the next 10 years, if God allows the President to continue and hand over to His Excellency the Deputy President, William Ruto. It will jump to a First World country. However, we cannot achieve that unless we are united and committed for the welfare of this country. Hon. Speaker, at times I am shocked if this is the same country we have been living in before. How can an individual tell Members of Parliament who have been elected by thousands of Kenyans not to attend sessions of Parliament? That they can only sign and run away and they agree. I am particularly concerned ----"
