    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also rise to support this important and timely Motion, and congratulate Sen. Orengo for bringing it. The unity that was shown by the two leaders of this country is paramount to all of us. That important handshake that took place means goodwill for the investors. That same handshake prevents our country from being politically polarized throughout the years. Our country was in politics throughout and we had forgotten about issues of development. I believe that, that particular handshake will reduce the political polarization in our country and encourage people to go back to work. The two leaders demonstrated that our country is greater than all of us. It also demonstrated that there are no permanent enemies in politics; politics is a game of interests. The greatest interest at this particular time was unity to all of us. I have received several calls and text messages from the people of Bomet County and they are happy with this unity of purpose. I believe that this will also give this House more time to unite, so that we may hold our counties accountable. Earlier, we could not effectively do it because some people, based on their political parties, could have said that we are against their governors or counties. This is the time for all Senators to be united and do their oversight work and hold our county executives more accountable in what they do. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support this Motion."
