"content": "The fact that the President had an occasion to address this House is a testimony of what he clearly said - that the Government is fully functional. We have a working Parliament, Executive and Judiciary. This should be made very clear because there is concerted efforts by our brothers and sisters in NASA to portray that the country is not going in the right direction. This is a testimony that every arm of Government is working. Being here testifies that fact. Secondly, the President stated clearly that the elections on 17th October 2017 will not be about two individuals in this country, that is, him and the former Prime Minister, Raila Odinga. It is actually about the future of this country and how to deal with issues like lack of water, health, roads and infrastructure. As we head to the election on 17th October 2017, that fact should be in the minds of Kenyans. This stand-off is clear, especially after the ruling by the Supreme Court. Businesspeople are saying they have lost more than Kshs100 billion. The sooner this ends, the better for our country. I thank you, Hon. Speaker for the opportunity."
