    "content": "Madam Speaker, if the Minority Leader is the leader he is trying to profess, he would have addressed me with respect, particularly when it is on matters of his personal interpretation, as to whether or not I was cynical. I did not say that only the Opposition was smiling. The President, hon. Duale, and Cabinet Secretary Nkaissery were all smiles. I was not trying to talk to politicians. That was an indication to Kenyans that we have been and are always talking to each other. My message was not to Sen. Wetangula, President Uhuru Kenyatta, or the Deputy President. It was to Kenyans, that you cannot be held at ransom by politicians. We are capable of engaging and we do not need bloodshed in order to engage. I conclude by telling Sen. Wetangula that I am among the few Senators that have welcomed his presidential candidature and I am willing to listen to his manifesto and support him. Instead of him using that opportunity to invite me to support him, he is chasing me away."
