“Mandugu zanguni na madada zanguni, this chicken is a prime example of the visionary way my government has been running our hotbed of progress as a nation. With this in mind, my government plans to use the chicken's endevour as a symbol as we introduce the ChickenBond to raise funds to finish the Standard Gauge Railway currently in construction. There shall be a fuller briefing when I return from my ten country tour in a month.” ~
