    "content": "I hope one day I will join the Government and be with you. However, I intend to remain in the opposition to keep some of you sober and sane. This process because of the training I got when I was a Minister in the Government of President Kibaki, is a process which is handled quietly, efficiently and successfully. When you are going for these positions, you must be able to look at the sensitivities and the issues in all these geopolitical issues of Africa. What have we done instead? We have localized this whole thing as if it is about Raila who wanted to be something and William Ruto who wants to survive. Indeed, if that is the case, if Raila wanted the job and felt he would lose and come back here so that he could join President William Ruto's Government and, therefore, Kenya would become stable, my position is very simple. So long as you continue doing things the way you are doing them, the country will not be stable. When we were talking about what are the issues in Sudan, look at what you are having at KICC today. One group is at KICC parading themselves and you are insensitive to the issues that we are supposed to be the arbiters of two people who are fighting on the African Continent. When we are talking about Congo, the reality, my brother Cherarkey, is that we have a region which is affected by illegal mineral mining, by countries that are feeling incredibly insecure. You have Western powers who have an interest in managing what is happening in Congo and the reality is we just laugh at it. So, when M23 is coming to Nairobi to have a meeting here with our President, the simple fact that they came here put everybody into suspicion mode."
