Deputy Speaker, for giving me a chance to also contribute to the State of the Nation Address, by His Excellency the President. He spoke on many issues that are affecting this country. Many people did not understand him but they now understand him. The President talk about youth employment opportunities in this country. This month, we saw young people doing job interviews to go and work abroad. Many of them were recruited. He spoke about this but people were unsure. Kenyans do not believe easily. We should support our President and his Government. He took over the country when the economy was down and loans had reached the ceiling. The country is now paying debts. In every agency, department or ministry, civil servants are being paid their salaries. The President is working very hard to ensure that everything goes on well. He is hands-on. Kenyans were shocked on two occasions. The first was when Generation Z came to Parliament and the second was when they asked the President to sack his Cabinet, which he did. He listens to the people of Kenya. In this House, we struggled to pass the Finance Bill, 2024. When it reached State House, the President did not assent to it because Kenyans did not like it."},{"id":1501624,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1501624/?format=json","text_counter":104,"type":"speech","speaker_name":"Sirisia, JP","speaker_title":"Hon.

This is too generalised and stereotyping. When some youth misbehave, we cannot brand all of them as having bad behaviour. To say that we behaved like school children is an insult to all the children of this nation.

The tradition of rising in the event a speaker touches people’s souls or says something exciting that is overwhelmingly magnanimous for the country or a particular group is allowed. Hon. Members are being misconstrued for having risen. That was very well in order. It is called a standing ovation. It is not good to say that Hon. Members behaved badly. Standing ovations are respected moments of a great speaker when delivering a speech. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker."}]}
