    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, we want to assure you that we shall firmly stand behind you. We need to protect devolution and the Senate. We need concurrence that gives the Senate an opportunity to have an input in all Bills that come to Parliament. Often times, Bills are dealt with in the National Assembly without the involvement of the Senate. That business should be a thing of the past. We have very good jurisprudence from the Supreme Court. So, we need to elevate the stature of this House. Senators now have a lot of presence at the county level. I hope you shall create an opportunity for us to have a retreat where we can get further training. As we embark on our enhanced presence in the counties, we need to be trained on how to effectively discharge our functions as elected leaders who oversight the work of Governors. I thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I support."
