    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to add my voice and join my colleagues in supporting this Motion. I congratulate our leaders, the President of the Republic of Kenya, his Excellency the President, Hon. Uhuru Kenyatta and the Rt. hon. Raila Odinga, for the great act that we saw them do last Friday. As we have all witnessed while going around the country, we have seen how much this has gone towards healing what has been a very divided country. Sometimes we may not want to accept the way things are. This has been a country that is split 50 to 50 per cent which has been bad for the fabric of our country and economic and social development. All sorts of things have not worked well despite a push by many to try and bring it back on track. However, by the decision of the two leaders to come together and by just having that handshake in public, it has gone a long way in healing this country. As we move forward, I also urge leaders that if we play our role in helping to bring the country together as they have done, then we shall go a long way in healing this country, getting better days ahead and building the bridges after such a bitterly contested time we have gone through in the last few years. I also support this Motion."
