"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. May I thank you and the House for the honuor you have bestowed on me, my vice-chairman and the PSC to co-ordinate the process of constitution review so far. I thank the President, the Prime Minister, the Vice- President and members of this House for the support they have given to this process, this far. Nobody said it would be easy, or boring, and I think this evening has shown that very clearly. Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is important to note that we are at the end of the process, and that the whole philosophy of the Act we tried to argue about today was to conclude the process. The philosophy was the conclusion of that process. The most critical organ of the review process is yet to come. All of us, before now, were the hand maidens so to speak, who were required to safely deliver the product to that end product stage. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the popular sovereign is the people of Kenya. They are wise, they are hardworking in their villages, they have suffered and this is a decision they are very able to make. This is really their decision to make. Ours was to give input. Ours was to give input. This House, indeed, passed a law that stated how this was to be done and then move forward to the document. By virtue of the fact that this Motion that I moved, and Members did, indeed, debate the Motion, I will seek your permission to go and touch on a number of things."
