    "content": "The country is in a very good trajectory especially through Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta, our President. It is the correct trajectory although we have some challenges that I see as a Member of Parliament, especially on the accounting system of our country. As Members of Parliament, we do not have the capacity to oversee the kitty that is contributed by the taxpayers. We do not have a very good system. The accounting system is a bit clumsy, where we have the budget, the supplementary budget and a second supplementary budget that we are supposed to oversee. That is a challenge to me. There is a lot of corruption going on in the country. We have to fight it if we have to have a country. The most corrupt countries are the poorest in the world. We have to think about it and change. We also have tribalism. Although we say politics is local, we have to see ourselves as Kenyans. We must see other tribesmen as Kenyans and forget tribes because at the end of the day, we have to create a nation and see each another as brothers and sisters."
