    "content": "This country needs healing. I hope the dialogue is going to be honest. William Shakespeare said that there is no rich legacy like honesty. I hope we are not going to play each other. We are in this issue together. In this issue, we are there with honesty. From the NASA Coalition, I want to confirm that all the political parties – FORD-Kenya, Wiper, ANC and ODM - support dialogue. A time comes where you must forget about the bygones and move on. This is the time. The welfare of a country is mutually exclusive with political rhetoric. This is the time we must settle now and move forward. The people of Kiminini and the people of Trans Nzoia, whom I am going to lead as the governor come 2022, God willing, expect development. The Jubilee Government must be inclusive. When these two people came together... I spoke to the CEO of the Nairobi Stock Exchange (NSE) and he confirmed to me that the stock market went up. Indeed, it is true. We expect that in the remaining positions, President Uhuru will nominate everybody. I was surprised yesterday when some positions were moved quickly. We thought they were going to throw some things to Nyanza, Trans Nzoia, Western, Coast and other places. We are requesting that for the positions that are remaining, in the spirit of inclusivity, we want to see more Principal Secretaries and more Cabinet Secretaries from the strongholds of NASA because we are all taxpayers. We are going to be committed. We are going to put Jubilee on toes if at all they bring some issues which are not good. For things that are there for the public good, we are going to support the Government. We are going to be very objective. We want to grow this country to greater heights of prosperity. Thank you."
