    "content": "It is new to the extent that he has raised four issues upon which you should rule. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am inviting you to consider ruling on a fifth issue. Whereas this is the Senate, in this Chamber this morning and for the next two days, we will convert ourselves to a trial chamber. Therefore, any MP seated in this Chamber is here as a judge on what is going on. Mr. Speaker, Sir, if you allow Hon. Osoro to sit in this House and do something other than what an MP is supposed to do in a trial chamber, is it not tantamount to having a sitting of the High Court, for example, where a judge who would have sat on that matter jumps and becomes an advocate in the same court? Mr. Speaker, Sir, since we are going to be setting a precedent, we request you to consider this issue long and hard because we have eminent lawyers in the National Assembly and Parliament at large who will start abusing this process to the extent that it will be to the disadvantage of the impeachment process."
