When you look at the East Africa currently, those who can come out and help us to redraw our boundaries or bring sanity within our boundaries are the EALA members we are electing tomorrow. I know people have been campaigning for their colleagues or people coming from their constituencies, but I would insist that we look for competency so that we have people who will defend the country and not people who are going to represent their personal interests. If we do this, we will be proud as Kenya, we will be proud in East Africa and we will be the driving force in EAC. But if we fail and award people who are going there purely to earn a salary, we will be a disgrace to this country. Currently if you look at East Africa as a whole, we used to be in the driving seat but our seat is now being threatened. And we can only regain it if we elect people who will know how to fight or lobby for this country so that we go back and have a reputable reputation in the EAC, or else we will end up being thrown back and being forced to be passengers in a matatu we are supposed to be driving. I support, Hon. Speaker. Thank you."
