President Uhuru Kenyatta
'...It is important to remind you of where we have come from, since 2007, you all know what happened, i don't want to repeat that story.I remember how some of you seated here were so against our decisions to look for unity in 2007...
"Some people keep saying I made a promise to them, no, i only have a promise and covenant with the people of Kenya. That is the promise I am implementing. Ask your guy why he can't allow me to do my work and keeps coming back for the baton, instead of waiting for his turn...
"mnataka tuongee lugha gani? Lugha zote ni zetu.I want that once we leave here, we speak in one language, in unity and unison...i know today some people are expecting me to come here, speak in anger or insult anyone. Too bad for them, i have no anger or insults.Mine is to have a conversation with you, to chart the way for this region and country".... KENYATTA.
PRESIDENT
"You see them here come to tell you, ooh you have been neglected and throwing some few coins your way to hoodwink you yet it's the same money they have looted,your resources. Take that money when it comes, but don't be blinded or misled.you remember how they claimed to have been left out of the handshake. Remember how in Bomas i said how they involved and even nominated members to the BBI team? The truth must be told.If they really care about the hustlers, let's say in mathare Nairobi, why would they oppose that revenue sharing formula? What is the problem with taking what BBI is offering us, then wait for whatever else they are promising us in future when they get into power? If these people care about you and this region, why would they the other day oppose the revenue sharing formula yet it was keen on solving the problem of skewed resource allocation?
