    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Speaker Sir. I have no doubt that my county is on the right track. We should be willing to condemn in the strongest terms possible politics of mayhem and obnoxious language that abuses people based on a non-agenda or nothing at all, for example, Hon. Babu Owino who abused the President’s mother. That was unacceptable. It has no place in modern civilization. It has no place for anybody called Mheshimiwa who is supposed to represent people in a constituency in this country. It was shameful and we condemn it. The President’s Speech upheld the Constitution, the youth and women. It provided a key strategic direction that is a change maker to our economy, governance and prosperity. There is no prosperity without peace. Kenyans do not want handouts and politicking forever. They want to be left to do their work and that is exactly the policy President Uhuru Kenyatta is laying out for us as a key strategic direction for our country. The rest is up to us to cascade them and break them down to what we do on a daily basis in order to achieve prosperity and peace in our country. We should not let a handful of people come in the way of that peace and, therefore, in the way of prosperity. With those few reflections, I support my President’s speech. I am proud of it because it is taking us in the right direction. Thank you."
