    "content": " Hon. Speaker, thank you for this opportunity. My attention is drawn to Article 125 of the Constitution, which makes reference to the effect that Parliament has got the same powers as the High Court. Out of that, I am left to look at the evidence presented by my good friend Hon. Mutuse and wonder: Does it really meet the threshold of any form of evidence as required at the High Court? I have looked at various breaches that warrant impeachment: gross violation of the Constitution, crime, gross misconduct, and so many other things. I am at pains going through this Motion to find anything that has been proven beyond reasonable doubt to move this House to take such a drastic action, considering these are people elected under Article 148 of the Constitution. Framers of the Constitution deliberately inserted Article 148 to avoid the kind of abuse that had been there in the past. If we get to this level, everybody will be left wondering: What is the role of Parliament in protecting the Constitution? I want to rephrase Luke 23, verse 4: I find no case against this man."
