"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is true. I know how you felt. However, there is a reason why Jesus said we seek for forgiveness. They have organised themselves and sought for forgiveness because they felt the heavy burden. I plead with you, please, forgive our colleagues. Finally, I know we are all reasonable and mature but that does not stop us from facing tribulations. Sometimes, we are intoxicated by idlers in the market place. We pick things from the market. We pick noises and rumours from the market and then want to confirm it as the truth. Please, let us differentiate facts from ideas. Whatever we do in this House and the world is a manifestation of our ideas. An idea will first of all come and then we implement it. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with due respect, we were together in the National Assembly. I owe you a lot of respect. I know we have standards. The citizens of Kenya have given this Senate a contract. We have to perform as per the contract in one way or the other. Therefore, we are here to glorify the Lord. We are not here to glorify any other person. We are here to do the will of God. I plead with you, forgive our brothers, in Jesus’s name."
