    "content": "We were wound up from the backdoor and ended up without a party. At one point, I was the deputy party leader of the United Democratic Forum (UDF) Party. How did we lose it? It was bought and wound up. We just saw people closing offices. We thought the offices were ours at one point. So, we need to be very careful about the Political Parties Act. We need to encourage political parties to own assets. One of the ways of ensuring that parties are managed and controlled by a few people is to ensure that they have no assets. The only asset you have is the pocket of the party leader. He moves around with his pocket in the trouser. Let me give an example. We have KANU. However much you would want to wish KANU away, you cannot kill it because they have assets across the country. We do not quite know how they are owned, but they are there and they belong to the party. So, anybody who wants to kill KANU has a lot to do."
