    "content": "The other climax of the President's Address is the handshake. Kenyans are celebrating the handshake because after the elections there was a lot of noise in the country as people were disturbed and were in the streets. I thank the President for cooling down the tension of the people who were dissatisfied with the elections. My opinion as a Member of Parliament from Turkana is that for us to support the handshake, we must give some people priority. There are people we must give power for Kenya to be peaceful. These people are like Raila, Kalonzo among others. We must prioritise people who have been missing power. If they continue missing power, we will continue having noise. Those who are celebrating now in Jubilee are those people who were abusing members of the Jubilee Party. We have realised that in Jubilee they were crying for food and not power. Now that they have got food, they are the first ones saying that things are good. Kenyans are watching them. What are you crying for? Is it power or food? If you fight for a goat for your children and when you get it you give it to those who were not fighting for it, how will it look like?"
