    "content": "talks about his insubordination and Article 160 that Sifuna has talked about, that deals with undermining public institutions, particularly the judges. I was born and brought up in Nairobi County, Eastlands, where I come from. When growing up, we were not even aware of each other's tribe. Our neighbour could be from any other tribe. When I hear the Deputy President talking and allocating shares to citizens, I am aware that he is excluding more than half the population of Nairobians from service delivery. These are the same people that me and Sen. Sifuna are always here fighting for every day for allocation of resources and services. As if that was not enough, he was in the Central Business District (CBD) the other day, addressing Nairobians in the Kikuyu language, assuming that all Marikiti traders are Kikuyus, nothing can be further from the truth. Sowing seeds of tribalism in Nairobi is very dangerous. If you have seen the slums set up where all tribes live together, I do not want to imagine if you sensitize these people and make them aware of their tribes and their lack of shares in their own country. Finally, in future, I want to call upon presidential candidates to make critical attributes of their running mates; to have political maturity and a national outlook. To some extent, we want to put some blame on the President because we are wondering what he looked at when he picked his running mates. Thank you."
