I have heard people say that if we go the Committee way, it will be held away from the public. That is not right. Every Senator is allowed to appear in that Committee and they can contribute through the membership of the Special Committee. It is also wrong to discuss membership of this Committee, saying that some were governors and others were not. Whether we go the Plenary or Committee way, the governors will be there. That is not supposed to be even entertained in this House. We are all equal in this House. There are no virgins in the maternity. We are all equal. We went through the same process. We are all Senators in this House. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the issue is not about Hon. Kawira. It is the issue of the people of Meru, over 200,000 who voted for her, plus the whole of the county that she is now serving. Through the Committee, we are going to investigate this matter and give justice to both Hon. Kawira and the people of Meru County. Mr. Speaker, Sir, having had the experience of going through such a process, I believe I will be an asset to this Committee. I do understand what happens when it comes to such processes. I support women so much---"
