    "content": "thought that, that fear of telling a lie to this honourable Senate, to me, is more powerful than even bringing a medical report. We have had many medical reports generated outside hospitals. We see them in courts almost on a daily basis. You will remember the rush that was there when I was asking to be given up to 5.00 p. m. It was a rush. Was I to fail to come back to this honourable House at 5.00 p.m. waiting for a medical report when the doctors there are busy attending to their patient, the Deputy President? Medical reports, I can bring. If I have told lies, that is something that can be established. My learned friend, Hon. Orengo, talks about giving evidence from the Bar. Seated down, I was learning while he was giving evidence from the Bar about some cases filed in Malindi that I am not aware of. Perhaps, he should have given us a copy of that. Article 145(6) is clear, and I do not want to take time of this august House, going back to it. It applies. I would plead with you and hon. Senators to give us until Tuesday to see whether the Deputy President will be well enough. No one decides when to get sick or not. I am sure many hon. Senators here have a story of their shock because of having spent an evening with somebody, then the following day they hear that person is gone, yet they were looking good and healthy. Let us be humane and compassionate. Tuwe nautu kidogo . On Tuesday, the heavens are not falling down to join the earth. I thank you."
