"content": "Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. You caught me a bit off-guard. I was looking at a Kshs1,000 note just to confirm that the word ‘harambee’ is in the coat of arms. This has pricked my interest because there is a theory out there in the streets as to the reason why Kenyan citizens of the Indian descent show up with a knapsack bag at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), completely poor from the state of Gujarat, but within two, three, four or five years they troop back to India as billionaires. The reason is harambee ; that our money prays to their god. It will be quite interesting if this House considers this petition, but that is our work anyway; to listen to the views. This is part of representation; if there are things that concern Kenyans then we should listen to them and perhaps change. There is only one change that I would propose to his petition. He has thought of ‘ haki’ as a suitable replacement, but I would propose a more national phrase, something more ideal like ‘ tukopamoja’."
