Ah, come on, my brother.

You know what?

My wife...

My wife always thought

you were a really big guy.

And now?

After seeing you yesterday

She asked, "Is that really Mbotela?

That's not fair, my brother.

But, my brother blame the voice.

Blame your own voice.

But...

Most Kenyans trust that voice, right?

True.

And you know that's a rare gift, right?

Seriously my brother, I mean it.

You know some politicians

Spend their whole life

Trying to earn that kind of trust.

Infact...

You ought to run for Parliament

don't you reckon?

Come on, Wainaina. Me, in Parliament?

Yeah, why not?

Especially if you kick off your campaign with...

''KARIBUNI WASIKILIZAJI''

You'll have won before you know it.

Wainaina, you're something else!

You've got talent.

You're a people person.

People adore you

You and your Parliament talk...

You're my MP already. You've got my vote.

I left it in my room, man.

C'mon, man.

Make your move.

Like this government's gonna wake up tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

It'll wake up to us wrenching it by the balls.

JACKPOT!

Will you call me?

In just three days.

You sure you won't forget me?

My brother

I could never forget you.

I don't trust you one bit.

You know how it is.

Sometimes people leave

And forget the folks back home.

If I don't call in three days.

I'll write to you.

In three days brother.

II'll call.

You promise?

I promise.

You even want a pinky swear?

Yeah.

See?

You're already picking up on Western ways.

Alright then.
