    "content": "I thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. As the leader of the Migori County Delegation, I must say that on this Motion, my people who gave me the chance to be in this House are sad. I will not lie that they were disappointed that Rt. hon. Raila Odinga did not become the Africa Union Chairperson. They had dreams and hopes that he would become the Chair so that he could be a bridge between excellence in the continent and our people in Kenya. The people of Migori County were championing and rooting for him. It is no question that they are sad. In any sad situation whether death or losing an election as happened, if you are sad and somebody else is laughing, that person does not want the best for you. It does not matter whether whatever brings you sadness is something that brings them happiness. It just means that those people do not want good for you. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, anybody who has laughed at, and celebrated that loss we had in Ethiopia has got no best interest of our people at heart especially the delegation I am representing for Migori County. I remember, Nelson was one day asked by a journalist on his take on the Cuban positioning as well as on Muamar Gadaffi. He told the journalist that many people thought their enemies are supposed to be South Africa’s enemies. Just because one has some enemies somewhere, they are not going to be ODM’s enemies."
