    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, a critical point of history is that when there were demonstrations such as Saba Saba and the rest, I was appointed as the Attorney- General of Kenya. At that time, I felt as though I could not last for more than six months in Government taking into account that two of my predecessors; Mr. Karugu and Mr. Kamere had lasted in the position for less than a year each. I was prepared to go out by the end of the year. However, I stayed on for 12 years because of the person late Daniel Toroitich arap Moi was to me. He took me in and we agreed on the modalities of working. We trusted each other. There were many political situations that were going on at the time I took office. The Attorney-General’s job was under attack almost every week. Fear of job loss was real. I will forever be very grateful to the late Daniel Toroitich arap Moi for protecting me and keeping me for all those years in spite of all the kelele that was going on within and without the Government."
