    "content": "of Kirinyaga County also expects justice from this House. The people of Kirinyaga County have spoken through their elected representatives. First, it was the Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) and now we are here. Every one of us is elected in the counties we come from, but the moment we come here, we represent those counties. However, we are national leaders inside here. I have just come from that side of the country. My plea to the House is that, please, let us listen to the people. We are here to represent the people. The people of Kirinyaga County and the Governor of Kirinyaga County is also a person from Kirinyaga County. Let us listen to the people. The people of Kirinyaga County have spoken unequivocally about what they expect. It is the way justice is dispensed. They expect that the Plenary of this House will listen to this case. Mr. Speaker, Sir, if this case is heard in Plenary, it will vindicate the Governor if she is innocent. However, the people of Kirinyaga County will have seen that justice was served in the right way. If we go the other way and then vindicate the Governor, ask yourselves: How is she going to operate in Kirinyaga County thereafter? Ask yourselves that question. I say this because Sen. Orengo, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. and Sen. Murkomen were here when you impeached the Governor of Embu County three times. I can assure you that for five years Embu County was at a standstill. Let us not drive Kirinyaga County that direction. I am pleading with my colleagues in this House that let us listen to the people of Kirinyaga County."
