Member of Parliament for Dadaab constituency Farah Maalim has clarified that he did not call for the death of youths who are protesting in the country.
In another video, Farah says he has a clean political track that has been achieved by very few people in the political context.
“I have a very long history, over 30 years of history in the politics of this country. And am one person who would say that has had a track record that is matched by few people in the political history of this country,” Maalim narrated.
Expressing his love and commitment for the country, Maalim says he always does what he feels is better for this country.
“I have always been a Kenyan, what I did is that I came in as an opposition member of parliament in 1992 on FORD Kenya. What I feel in my conscious is best for this country is what I am going to do,” he stated.
In addition to that, the MP related what is happening in the name of peaceful protest to what brought unrest to other African countries.
“What am calling for this state, I am calling for it because I don’t want us to go the Sudan way, or go the Somalia way or go the Libyan way or any other ways.”
