Then he became the Vice-President of the Republic of Kenya at a time when this country was going through difficult moments. I am saying that, probably, if hon. Kalonzo Musyoka did not make the decision to support the Government of hon. Mwai Kibaki, probably we would not have Kenya today. If the Rt. Hon. Raila Odinga did not accept to share power with His Excellency Mwai Kibaki, then we would not have Kenya today.

• 11 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: There are people who, after we give them pension or retirement benefits, they get into misconduct. If you are such a person, you cease getting the benefit.
