    "content": "President Moi exemplified true humility. He lost his parents at a very young age and was brought up by missionaries. He had very humble beginnings, but made it in life through hard work. Our youth today think that one can have shortcuts to leadership or wealth, but Moi’s life and leadership skills teach us that there are no shortcuts in this life. We all have to work hard to become somebody in this country. President Moi was the soul of our country and my party, KANU and all of us who grew up watching him at the helm of leadership. We give him credit for the democracy and stability that we have in this country. President Moi adapted to the changes and made sure that he held our hands as we moved on. I would want to address him and say; ‘thank you baba . You gave us a piece of you. We honour your life and celebrate you. You have left a weighty legacy behind and that legacy is not in form of words or buildings, but it is in people like me. We will carry your legacy of peace, love and unity. We will also rally ourselves behind the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI). Rest in peace, baba ."
