Munyes","speaker_title":"","speaker":{"id":187,"legal_name":"John Kiyonga Munyes","slug":"john-munyes"},"content":"Mr. Speaker, Sir, I congratulate Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale for making such a statement. It is important because we are going to the general elections and unless we avoid violence, Kakamega County has set a precedent that this country should not be allowed to continue with. If a matter like this erupts with all the guns that people have in some of those areas where we come from, it can be a disaster. I know FORD-Kenya is a peaceful party, but from the time the Governor of Kakamega decided FORD-Kenya will not launch Sen. Wetangula’s presidential bid, I started smelling a rat. I also blame the Government side. It should have deployed enough security because we know FORD-Kenya partners can disrupt elections."}
