    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it is almost 6.00 p.m. The House started at 2.30 p.m. The composition of this House is because of donated power to all of us by the people of Kenya. I am glad that my brother, Sen. Cheruiyot is here because the position that he holds is established by the Constitution among other leaders, including my Minority Leader, Sen. Madzayo. Today is a solemn day because we are not transacting business that helps the people of Kenya. This is very sad because we are sitting here because of privilege or responsibility. The founding father of this nation, His Excellency Jomo Kenyatta, in his book “Facing Mount Kenya” he talks about responsibility. He said that the responsibility of nationhood will be given only to reliable custodians. I want to urge Sen. Cheruiyot as the Senate Majority Leader and in extension, my brother, Sen. Madzayo to cast their eyes in this House and tell me if they feel that this House is becoming a reliable House that deals with issues that Kenyans want us to be dealing with every day."
