Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there are great lessons in this country we can learn from sports that can take this country forward. Sen. (Dr.) Machage has raised a very important issue. I was asking Kenyans why they are fighting each other. Look at us. We dine together. We politicians sit together when invited to State House. Kenyans are stoning each other. Their children are dying.

Madam Speaker, if the Minority Leader is the leader he is trying to profess, he would have addressed me with respect, particularly when it is on matters of his personal interpretation, as to whether or not I was cynical. I did not say that only the Opposition was smiling. The President, hon. Duale, and Cabinet Secretary Nkaissery were all smiles. I was not trying to talk to politicians.
