    "content": "It is my prayer that this matter is heard and concluded because the Senate needs its space. We must move forward. The Senate leadership should not allow any other way to resolve the issue. If we do not allow the courts to pronounce themselves on this matter, after sometime, we will go back to the same issues. The other day the National Assembly tried to lecture us on our role. We cannot allow that to happen. I encourage my colleagues that we be in court tomorrow either virtually or physically, to give moral support to the lead senior counsel. Others who are learning like some of us, should be there to take notes and carry files for the senior counsel. As a former Chairperson of the Committee, I am proud that this matter should be dispensed with and make our space known. The way the former leadership led by Sen. Murkomen and Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki did in the advisory opinion on the issue of division of revenue, was commendable. We must agree to move forward so that the Senate can have its space and we no longer become the footnote. Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for this opportunity."
