    "content": "Protect me from Sen. Sakaja. What I have seen from the late President, he was a true servant leader. I have watched videos where the late President could interact with his people down at the grassroot level without choosing. I have seen him ordering and giving instructions to civil servants to make sure they have done a, b, c, d. Those who have failed to meet that requirement--- In some cases he has dismissed certain officers there and then. The late President had improved or turned around the economy of Tanzania. In one of the cases I have read, instead of having a lavish ceremony after he was elected - Kenyans cannot afford to do that - he constructed a road in Dar es salaam. This is humility and a true leader. I have seen the way he interacted with the youth in his country; the artists. I have seen musicians saying that the President called me yesterday and said the following. Where in Africa can you find that kind of a leader? That is a true servant of the people. Madam Deputy Speaker, there are many people who criticised the late Magufuli, but a true leader is easily criticised because of his actions. He could appear in some offices to find out how people were doing, which is commendable. It is difficult at this moment to get somebody like Magufuli to revive what he has done. However, Magufuli has a track record in Tanzania that all East African Members need to emulate. I need to confirm to this House that when we started the Jubilee party because I sat in the team that drafted the manifesto. The intention that the President and the Deputy President of this Republic had was to have a CCM like party in Kenya. However, because of the tribal nature of our politics we did not achieve the positions and Kenyans need to learn from that. If you go to Tanzania, the way they present themselves, they talk of unity, ‘ sisiWatanzania’. They do not say sisi, this tribe or that. What is dominating our politics as Kenyans are our tribes and clans and that is not right. The death of the late President of Tanzania is something that Kenyans need to learn from."
