To my brethren in Luo Nyanza.


Am deeply amazed by how you conducted yourselves in the just concluded nominations. That was super. It was super for you to be sent nomination materials, destroy them and go ahead to make noise demanding nominations to be conducted. I was super for you to waste resource. It was super for you to create animosity because an adult candidate, out of his/her own will decides to vie for a position, and you demonize just because is related to a family that has for a long time fought for your dreams and that of the whole nation.
How amazing!
Amazing how a community could shout on top of their voices about how they would change parties if their preferred candidate did not win. Democracy, huh? Amazing to think what you could do come the next general election. Amazing how you could excite your political enemies with the thought of beautiful people not agreeing in a mere primary.
Hats off!
Hats off for acting with so much decorum after the party decides to quell the mayhem through direct nominations.  Hats off for bringing shame to ourselves in the glare of the whole world.
Even though am paid hourly for giving advice in the name of consultancy to corporates and individuals, I offer you the same freely. Dr. Raila Amolo Odinga is the best thing that has ever happened to Kenya and Africa. To make him King, we have to work together in harmony. We have to embrace every community with the arms of peace full of warmth. The love, tolerance and generosity we have demonstrated over the years should be upheld. Love for every person regardless of who they are or where they come from. Tolerance even when the whole world is against us and generosity witnessed when we voted for people from other communities out of love for this great nation. As one of you, I believe that our day of glory, shared with the rest of the nation is coming when and only we restore it through good manners.

With love,
DON SANTO
