    "content": "Some think that by throwing barbs at him online and composing small inshas and compositions, they will deter the fighting and indomitable spirit of our enigma, Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga, please take your time, relax and make phone calls to your fellow leaders across Africa to thank them for the vote that they gave you. Take time to reflect. When you come back home, let no one try to direct you on which direction you should take or which action you should take. He is a man who knows only one thing. What he knows is what is best for Kenya. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to thank President Willam Ruto. It is not taken for granted that when a Kenyan comes up to run for a continental position, that the Government will support that Kenyan. Just next door, we have a friend of ours, Mr. Olara Otunu, who at some point ran for the Secretary General of the United Nations. Olara Otunnu was originally Ugandan by nationality. However, because of local competition, Olara Otunnu ran for the UN Secretary General position as an Ivorian and not Ugandan citizen because the government did not see it fit to support him. A Ugandan would take the citizenship of another country to run for a global position. If we did not have mature politics in this country, you would have found a situation where Raila Amolo Odinga was running for the Chair of the AUC with a South Sudanese or Ugandan citizenship. However, William Ruto took this as project Kenya and not as project William Ruto. It was Kenya sending their best son to the continental stage."
