My name is Oroo Oyioka, the Member for Bonchari Constituency in Kisii County. I was here briefly in 2013/2014. You did not get to know me. I wish to thank my people for bringing me back here again. I hope to serve a full term this time round. Regarding the Presidential Address to Parliament, when I look at the decision taken by His Excellency the President, I see somebody who chose unnecessary evil for the purpose of the Constitution and for the purpose of peace. Where I come from, donkey meat is not classified as food. Whereas the donkey does a very good job of carrying luggage, I do not see eye to eye with its meat. If today you asked me to choose between eating donkey meat and losing my eyesight, of course, I am not stupid, I will say give me the donkey meat. I will not be accepting it because it is palatable to me or because it is sweet, I will take it as a last resort to save my eyesight.
