"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Sen. Abdulkadir Haji, welcome to the Senate. As your elder and one of the elders from North Eastern, I welcome you with open arms, as a person who knows how things happen. As Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. said, sometimes people disagree with our way of doing things. However, our way of doing things has resulted in this beautiful, election less, flightless process and we brought our Senator for Garissa County here without any problems. Mr. Speaker, Sir, may I tell Sen. Abdulkadir Haji that people know many things here. Everybody has their way of doing things. Your way of doing things as a nationalist and Kenyan is okay and it is allowed. However, they say East or West, home is best. The people of Garissa County brought you here without any argument or anybody disagreeing with anything. Those of us who had ambitions were told it is not the right time because of what had happened. With that, I advise you to hold the people of Garissa County with both arms. Hug and hold them the way they have brought you here. That is the way you will proceed and succeed. That is also what will help you in your political life. That said, I thank all Kenyans and all parties for making sure there was no contestation and all parties supported you unopposed. The Jubilee Party and its Kieleweke or Tangatanga all supported him. The National Super Alliance (NASA) and others also supported him. Now, as Sen. Orengo said, you are a Senator for Kenya, Garissa County and all of us here. Welcome as the newest Senator. Just recently, we had a by-election. I hope and pray that our old man is in jinnatul"
