    "content": "important Motion. It has come at a time when we are in this House, and mostly the side of Jubilee, as elected Members of Parliament and our victory was snatched from us. So, we have a duty as a coalition to go out there. I would plead to our side that we incorporate all other players. Let us not be selfish. That just because we have been elected, we fail to incorporate those we were competing together because by doing that, people would not come out to support our President. We need each and everybody especially those people who also participated at nomination to come out and support the President. I have friends on the other side of the Floor. We interact and I am not there to blame anybody. My friend, Minority Party Deputy Whip, Hon. Wamalwa, escaped death narrowly the other day at Westgate. We do not want to go that path again. You are young people. You are even not like us. We have been here long enough not like you. You need to be here four or five times. The country is at turmoil just because of one particular person, who even before you were born that has been his nature. You follow him blindly, and this country burns. The person who wants to burn this country has reached his time of going home. When you are 72 years, that is a bonus. He has even reached a bonus. You have not. You have young children. He is a grandfather yet he wants to bring problems into this country. We need to appeal to all of us that we have a nation. We have a nation we need to protect. This country belongs to all of us. Let us not use this country for demonstrations. There are people who think that by demonstrating, they have monopoly. Nobody has monopoly for demonstration here. Let those people not awake the majority because for some of us, I am sorry to say, our fathers died during the time of Mau Mau . We had no chance of even seeing our fathers for a year or less. There is the notion out there by people that there are certain people who are rich and who have everything that they do not mind. Once you push them, these people would give in. I am telling you, far from it, I am ready. I am a grandfather now but I am ready to go to the forest and fight. So, let nobody think---"
