It is natural that if somebody trusted you with a responsibility to make sure you are loyal to the person because they trusted you first. This is a common sense.

Today, you might have a goal to achieve political leverage. However, if you are fighting to be the President in 2022, reflect on whether there will be a country by that year.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, let us not let down the citizens who have entrusted us with positions on whose platform we can say all the bad things. Please, return the trust by speaking about the good things.

Therefore, governor (Prof.) Anyang Nyong’o is somebody with foresight. However, on this one, he messed big time. This is because the Nubian community are a minority in Kisumu. I am sure that because they are Muslims, they are also minority. Therefore, they are double minority. For you to destroy a mosque that they have had for 90 years, that is telling these people that you do not even belong to this country.
