    "content": " Hon. Deputy Speaker, let me just make my point. I want Members to understand why I think delocalisation is a good thing. After she was delocalised, she called me and told me that she had settled and she began to appreciate delocalisation. In principle, today I support delocalisation because in my constituency we have received teachers from Rift Valley and from Western and one thing that I like is, today, courtesy of delocalisation, my standard one pupils in my village can speak Kiswahili because teachers from Western and Rift Valley who have come to my region now are teaching them new ideas. For instance, where I come from, we did not grow up speaking Kiswahili. So, even though the petition is serious, I would like to plead with Kenyans to support delocalisation. Personally, I think it is a good thing because it is infusing new ideas. My colleague is saying that it is bringing about nationhood. I think this is a good thing. If we have teachers from other tribes coming to teach our kids, we will be trying to resolve this issue of ethnicity and tribalism. I think this is a good idea, let the committee handle this petition but in principle, let us support it."
