Regarding the case involving Moses Wetangula, Natembeya highlighted the importance of neutrality for the speaker and criticized Wetangula for not prioritizing this aspect. He emphasized that their disagreements are not personal but rather political. Natembeya lamented the lack of unity within the Luhya community, stating that if they were united, they could more effectively advocate for top positions in the country.

What's needed are transformational leaders who actively engage in meaningful work that positively impacts people's lives, thereby making their presence felt in tangible ways.
