    "content": "Mr. Speaker, I sat there listening and appreciating Sen. Orengos’ exuberant optimism about his party leader becoming the President. It is a far shot. Sen. Kibiru, my hardworking and bright Chairperson, we have come a long way between this House and the ‘Lower House’ and never trust any promise from them. I can assure you, you will be cornered into passing a Bill of such momentous importance and tomorrow you will be told ‘we have changed our minds.’ We have had so much altercation, mistrust and distrust with that House that some of us have graduated into Thomas from the Bible: That seeing is believing. I want to encourage you not to be too optimistic and too believing because it will not happen. If they will bring and send to you what you have promised tomorrow, we wait and see it. I am ready to be a Thomas on this particular matter. We should have a commitment in writing. If what you are saying is true, what is so difficult for the Speaker of the National Assembly to write to our Speaker and say we have this matter and the progress in this end is this much, we will reach here, please proceed if you can, or even from Clerk to Clerk. My Chairman is still licking wounds from a recent debacle. When he was frightened from joining a party of his choice and he is now stuck with people he does not like."
