"content": "I always ask myself, “am I representing people or an interest?”. It could be interest of an individual or my party, whether it is the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) or the United Democratic Alliance (UDA). Hon. Lawrence Sifuna was elected as the first MP for Bumula Constituency. Of course, he lost the seat to Morris Makhanu in 1988, who was the then North Eastern Provincial Commissioner (PC). I remember him as I was still very young. Hon. Lawrence Sifuna recaptured his seat in 1992 under FORD-Asili, if I am not wrong. He was an international accountant. If you look at history, those people who are gone decided to fight for this country and not their stomachs. If you fight for yourself, you cannot fight for the country. You cannot do both. You either choose to “eat” or fight for this country."
