    "content": "I feel bad because hon. Mati was with me in the streets when we were fighting for a new Constitution. If we allow this to go on, it is going to get to a point where an hon. Member of the Opposition cannot even get a project done by a Government because if you are seen with the President commissioning a particular project in your constituency, you are called a mole. You are told you are not loyal to the party and then you are thrown out of a committee. I would hate the same to happen on my side. I am happy our side does not do it. You know very well where hon. Alfred Keter has been for the last one year and a half. He has been in every political rally in this country challenging our Government. He even attempted to stop Government initiated projects but we never chased him away. We tolerated him and even brought him on board, sat with him, talked, understood his concerns, listened to him and we counseled him. What dictatorship is this that we are now seeing in the CORD Coalition, a party that has refused to be tolerant? What saddens my heart is that the party leader of CORD is one man we know has fought very hard for democracy in this country but, as he grows older, he is becoming very intolerant."
