    "content": "Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to also join my colleagues who have spoken before me in congratulating the Leader of the Minority Party for bringing this Motion to the House. Hon. Speaker, this is a new dawn for Kenya. It is a new dawn for a mature democracy like our country. The first thing that came to my mind when I saw our two leaders doing the golden handshake was to look at them as the peace makers that the Bible talks about. The Bible talks about the blessings that are bestowed upon peace makers as they shall be called sons of God. I was just wondering. For those who had a different opinion or those who are ‘throwing’ stones at our leaders, complaining and whining that this should not have happened, where do they belong? We are at a point where we should not be reading anything beyond what this initiative is. It has been said loud and clear. I have not seen or heard anything that talks about power sharing deals. This thing is about the welfare and prosperity for all Kenyans. We are at a point where Kenya is graduating into a mature democracy. This is where we can agree to disagree on certain political ideologies and agree on those things that are very vital for each and every individual Kenyan. They are the people who have made us to be where we are today. Hon. Speaker, when you see our economy hitting the right scales immediately after the good gesture that we saw from our two leaders, you would wonder why anybody would want to look for negative side. It is about healing and bringing our country together. In the near future, I foresee a situation where we will finish an election and the two opposing sides will jump into talks about rescuing Kenya, making sure that we do not degenerate into negative ethnicity, but only concentrate on doing what is right for Kenya."
