"content": "Hon. Member, hold on your time, but please, Hon. Members, just to give everybody comfort, up to now, I have 77 requests. As I was told there are Members who came here at 1:30 p.m. and some of you who came at 2:15 p.m., which is quite early. That is why some of you are telling me that you came at 2:00 p.m., but I was told there were Members who were here at 1:30 p.m. So, what do I do? Take this assurance from me that this Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill, I will ensure that as many voices are heard. At least, not less than the majority of the Members of this House will have to speak to the Bill. It does not matter how long it takes us because this is a serious business. It is the future of the country and I think we need to hear as many voices as possible. So, do not bother coming to check. I have no way of knowing who came at 1:30 p.m. I can at least remember the faces that I saw when I first sat here, but you were so many even at that time you were more than 70. So, it is very complex. Hon. Sankok has been sitting there for a long time. I have sympathy with the Member for Endebess, I know he was here in the morning, the grandfather of the House has quite unusually been physically present here since yesterday and he has not spoken. You can see him trotting around, having difficulties walking but he has to wait. That is the spirit. This is the spirit of doing a Constitution. So, I encourage Hon. Jimmy Angwenyi to continue, sit with the grandchildren, listen to them and then you will give them fatherly advice next week. Hon. Sankok, proceed."
