    "content": "This is what our future looks like: a Kenya where no one will ascend to a high public office on account of their tribe; a Kenya where no capable person will wallow in poverty because of poor governance; a Kenya where our potential people will be exploited for the greatness of our nation; and a Kenya where we will all share equitably in the prosperity of our nation. I believe our future is bright and I believe that the future is beckoning us. The future is here for us to take; and indeed, a future where truly justice will be our shield and defender. Every journey starts with a single step taken in faith, at times against all odds. That journey has commenced. Major changes are needed to our Constitution and other laws so as to lay the foundation for the prosperous future that we seek. As a people, we must seize this constitutional moment to ensure that we deliver to future generations of Kenyans, the future that they deserve. Kofi Annan once aptly reminded us as a country that this world is not ours to keep. We hold it in trust for future generations. This moment in time is our meeting with destiny. When generations come long after we are gone, let them say that we made the right decisions at this moment, that we chose unity over division and that we dreamt of and birthed a happier, more harmonious and prosperous nation. Kenya is greater than any individual."
