Famous quotes by Raila Odinga:

"This is an attempt to turn the clock backward. The Kenyan people will resist this attempt."

"Kenyans should rise and stop this draconian measures by a dictatorship government."

"This is taking us back to the dark days of the '60s, '70s and '80s."

"People have been asking me to declare my stand, whether I will go for the top seat. I want to say that when the opportunity comes, I will offer myself for the LDP presidential nomination. I will go for the top seat if picked by my party."

"The president admits that there should be a meeting between us to discuss pertinent issues on the constitution and the way forward."

"This is a government of the minority because one cannot chase you after you have wrestled him down."

"Grave matters need to be dealt with the seriousness they deserve and that is why we want parliament to be re-convened without further delay."

"These ministers should have been required to resign a long time ago, or to be suspended by the president to allow for a proper transparent investigation."

"This is basically a public relations exercise because you cannot investigate ministers who are still in office."

"We do not want this conflict to continue. We have said that 2006 will be a year of reconciliation, tolerance and dialogue. For that matter I am happy that the president has read the mood of the year and is positive like other Kenyans."
