"content": "I finally hope that we will get a President who understands and appreciates bicameralism. We will get a President who believes that a Senate is an important institution for sober second reflection. I pray that we will get a Speaker who will not be in inward looking but will ensure that they continue with the legacy of taking Senate out to the grassroots and have an impact in communities rather than what we call kizungu mingi in Nairobi. I also pray that the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) will be responsive to the needs of the Senate and the Senators. I pray that we shall find someone at the National Treasury who will finally give us a fund which will enable Senators to conduct public participation and carry out oversight. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish you Godspeed and all the best in your next engagement. Rest assured that when you appear before the Senators who will be lucky to come back - I pray I am one of them-we will be fair but very firm. I thank you."
