"content": "If we do not want to co-exist, let us not use the backdoor of omnibus amendments. Let us face the people directly through a referendum. Let us put the question to the people and ask them whether we need a Senate or not or whether we need a bicameral system or not. Let the matter be settled by the people rather than some people who just want to hide behind legislative drafting to amend the Constitution suspiciously. Senator and the Chairperson for the Senate Standing Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights, we are fully and solidly behind you. If you need us to match as we have matched in the past, we shall be there. If we have to take politically incorrect decisions to defend the Constitution and the Senate, we shall join you. The institution of the Senate is provided in the Constitution. As the Senator for Homa Bay and one having been elected by the people of Homa Bay to represent in the Senate, I will not preside over the mutilation and dismemberment of the Senate. Over my dead body! Thank you, Senator of Nyamira."
