I wish to go on record on this very important Motion. The question has always been whether to build bridges or walls. For a long time we, as political leaders, have been busy building walls. As I go on record, I wish to trace some of the adventures that I have also been involved in as a politician and some of the wall building activities that I have undertaken. Shortly after my election, I was one of those who, in a joint sitting of Parliament, came in with whistles and all manner of theatrics and interrupted a solemn speech by President Uhuru Kenyatta. At that point, I had legitimate concerns that I thought could best be dealt with by building walls. Today, in the spirit of reconciliation that this country has adopted, I wish to apologise to the President for that action that we took in the National Assembly some two or three years ago."}
