You are all aware of the happenings that have been taking place in this country. It is sad that we have lost Kenyans because of the happenings that have been going on. We, as a House, need to reflect on these happenings. It is a moment when, we, as leaders, need to do a lot of soul-searching. The many issues that have been raised by those who have been protesting cannot be wished away. Nobody is better placed to address those issues other than the leadership, and more particularly, the Senate. The Senate is the only House that goes to the grassroots. It is the only House that protects the counties and their governments. Therefore, it is this House that must rise to the occasion. We have to confront the realities of today as a House and as a leadership. If there is a day that this country yearns for leadership, it is this day. Hon. Senators, in memory of the departed fellow Kenyans, I call upon all of us to rise and observe a minute of silence."
