    "content": "We can borrow heavily from outside but invest in the industrial undertakings in this country so that we can become an industrial country in the shortest time possible. But we take Euro Bond and steal it, take another bond, borrow from commercial banks because these are the only people who give kickbacks and put up white elephant projects like the Standard Gauge Railway because there is money that will be given from that. We have a serious problem. Our problem is not because the citizens are not hardworking; it is not because we do not have potential; it is because we have a corrupt, God-forsaken and damned political class. We are part of that class, for your information. Young man, the Member of Parliament for Kiharu, where the great Matiba came from, you have done an excellent job. For God's sake, go back to the hustler Government with the right programmes for Kenyans. We cannot be in a country like this for our tea farmers. We still have farms in the hands of foreigners and multi- nationals for the next 1,000 years, and we call ourselves independent. No! Take back those farms and allocate them to those who have the right - the area's indigenous people. The smallholders will do a good job. It is not right if you also go and participate in that by taking a farm because you are the president, a deputy president or God knows who you are."
