    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for the opportunity to react to the State of the Nation Address by His Excellency the President, Hon. Uhuru Kenyatta. I would like to start off by thanking the President for coming to the House and therefore recognising the people‟s representatives who are Members of Parliament (MPs). If there were any emotions shown by MPs that day, they actually show or reflect emotions of the people that he leads. The President told us that the economy is expected to grow at 6 per cent and at the end of 2019 it is expected to grow at 6.3 per cent. However, many people want to see the evidence of the growth. What they are saying is that they are not feeling the growth of the economy. Therefore, the President needs to focus on the micro-economics of this country, so that the Wanjikus and Nafulas can feel that the economy is growing. As it is now, everyone things that we are moving at a bad pace and that the economy is not growing. One thing that I liked in the President‟s Speech is what he said about corruption. He said that we no longer have vigilante justice. He said that even as we fight corruption, the laws of natural justice will continue to be followed and that was commendable.
