    "content": "There is a narrative propagated by the West and in a way it works. In our country now, I dare say that perfect democracy is from the seat of the governor downwards. It is upon us as leadership to be aware that even if we have the IEBC and even if we go to the ballot after every five years…Every time we go to elections, the president’s seat, the results are always contested. That means that we give the IEBC billions of shillings but we do not accept the outcome of the results. This may not be a problem of personalities. We need to determine whether we need to have a homegrown version of democracy like the one China has embraced or the one Morocco, a quasi-democracy and quasi-nobility led by kings has so that we do not continue holding elections in futility. We need to have a homegrown way of electing our president. The current way of doing it does not work."
