(Dr.) Boni Khalwale): Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was building my congratulations, but since Sen. Madzayo thinks that he knows where I am going, I will allow him that latitude. I would like to conclude by saying that as Kenyans, we must take institutions seriously. If, indeed, we take institutions seriously, then the merry-go-round that we have seen this morning was not necessary. Every minute spent here is spending public funds. I appeal to my brothers on the other side that we treat this institution with the seriousness it deserves. Mr. Speaker, Sir, scanning around, you will allow me to brag a little bit. I know you well. You will recall that in those difficult days when you came to Parliament as a young professional, I welcomed you. At that time, you were very handsome, but you have become even more handsome."}
