Ndugu Gikarie apelekwe Kamiti na kuwa pamoja na Ndugu yake Barasa.

Sura ya sita ya Katiba yetu hairuhusu mtu yeyote mwenye tabia kama zake kugombea kiti chochote cha uongozi nchini.

Kwa nini Wafula Chebukati anawaruhusu watu wenye tabia kama hizi kuwa viongozi wa nchi? Wakati sasa umefika ambao nchi itafaidika sana iwapo Wafula atastaafishwa kwa manufaa ya umma, na kucha mambo ya siasa katika maisha yake yote.
