    "content": "As we even move forward towards our East African integration and embracing the national anthem and those symbols of their flags, it has to be on the basis of a foundation. We know it is a great journey which we have walked and we will continue to walk. We want to look at our visions like Vision 2030 and build our political, economic and social pillars. This has to remain a profound thing for each of us, so that these symbols do not just become a passage of time but become an epitome. I heard a question on whether the Deputy Governors should fly the flags. We should allow them. It is how you reverence our flag. Our military holds its flags dearly. Look at the march-past like the one which was ably unveiled by His Excellency the President on 12th December last year during our national celebrations. It was an elaborate exercise which ought to be repeated over and over again in all our institutions, parastatals and county governments. In all our places, we ought to treat the national flag with the greatest reverence possible."
