    "content": "We, as politicians, are in a struggle for the minds of the people of this Republic. We must also use ideas to attract and influence Kenyans. Force has no room in a democracy. For we know that force always attracts men of low morality. I want to skip a few paragraphs and emphasize here that Kenya is known for its reciprocal regard for each other of shared responsibility. The idea that everybody has a stake in the country is paramount and that it is together and everyone got a shot at opportunity if it pleases you that it is me and the dragon of intolerance is not checked, the same will maul you tomorrow. Since I joined politics, I have been driven by the dream to participate first and foremost in legislation that promotes wealth and opportunity creation, including eliminating graft. For this, I have paid the price! It is, therefore, worth noting that if you have no cause to die for, then you have no reason to live. I am alive to the fact that a dream does not become reality through magic. It takes sweat, determination and hard work. I have suffered the arson attempts both in my Kisii home and Nairobi homes, but I have remained true to my principles. I hold it true that we must be judged by merit, not family connections and blind loyalty. It is only ideas that will transform this country."
