    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, yes, I am reading it. Media misreporting created three wrong impressions that I wish to correct in this Personal Statement. The impression created was that I consulted with a witchdoctor. Nothing can be further from the truth. My late parents, both of whom were trained medical workers, were lay preachers and in fact, my mother became a pastor in her later years of life. We were brought up strictly as Christians and I want to affirm to all those prayed and fasted for this election win, that I worship the one true God, Maker of Heaven and earth and his son Jesus. I believe in the Holy Ghost, without whom I would not be standing here. The second impression created was that I was in a get rich quick scheme. Nothing could be further from the truth. I waited for six months for each investment to pay. Any serious investor knows that it takes a much shorter period to double your investment if you invest correctly in a stock market, especially, if you are lucky to have a good Initial Public Offering (IPO). Finally, the impression created was that a man of good education cannot fall victim to scams. Nothing could be further from the truth. Crime can occur to any person and no amount of education can prevent a person from being raped, violently robed or scammed. I finish by assuring Kenyans that I will pursue my rights to damages from all those involved in maligning my name either directly or by innuendos. I appeal for journalism that is responsible because none that are trained in that profession do not undergo a training by the tittle “Libel and ethics of Journalism.” All of them in particular know that court reports must not be spiced up."
