Fellow kenyans, 
We know from history that plagues change societies in fundamental ways.
Where the COVID-19 will take us, we cannot tell for now. But we know that we have to fight it. We need a new breed of patriots for this new breed of war. The war is not for the armed selected few. it is for every man, woman, every boy, and girl.
Here’s my appeal, let’s personalize this war.
I am calling on every Kenyan to use his or her existing personal social connections and ask them daily to protect themselves daily from Coronavirus. Let each of us make daily phone calls, have video chats, send emails and text messages to friends, family and acquaintances including chamaa members, prayer group members, business people, riders, touts, and drivers, former and current schoolmates, e.t.c. and encourage all of them to avoid crowds, observe social distance, wash their hands and wear masks, even improvised and homemade ones
Let’s follow up daily to find out if they are managing to comply or they have challenges.
Do not struggles with strangers, focus on people you have a personal relation with.
To the youth of Kenya, this is your chance to be our country's new soldiers, new saviours. Use the advantages that technology has put in your hands like smartphones and social media to encourage your friends to stay safe and to keep them company from a distance,
My fellow Kenyans, I have known you for long. I know your strong faith and belief in friends, family, social network and acquaintances. I know your determination, kindness, and humour even in grim situations. Let these come to play now. Let us make this a people-for-people moment. Let us all go out and tell our friends to tell their friends that the window is slowly shutting. If we do not take personal control now, there will be no control to take later. You remain in my thoughts and prayers
