I urge you, praise singing will not take us anywhere, I urge you to tell your leader the truth. I don’t do song praise. This country will go to the dogs again if the kind of language I’m hearing here continues. If we have something being brought to Siaya, it is a matter of right, not that we are being given as a favour.— James Orengo, Siaya Governor, in remarks on development priorities for Siaya and critique of praise singing ahead of a meeting with President Ruto
