    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to the President‘s speech via the Motion moved by the Senate Majority Leader. If you sat in that Chamber on the afternoon of Thursday, last week, you could see that over the period, the President has gained on the Opposition side and lost on his side. You saw a lot of cheering on the opposition benches, and murmuring and grumbling from his own benches. This tells a story that the unfolding scenario of politics in this country is indeed, very interesting. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the President spoke to several issues, but I will spend a little time to mention a few. Listening to the speech and the manner in which it flowed, it tells you that it is pure utopia. One would have thought that the President was talking of a different country, and not the Kenya will live in and know. I invite His Excellency the President to read a small book by Chinua Achebe, called ― The Troublewith Nigeria;” it may help him appreciate a few of our things here. Madam Temporary Speaker, many of our issues in this county have not improved. Sen. Cheruiyot, the Senator for Kericho County, has spoken to the issue of the economy. Truth be told, the economy of this country is shrieking."
