    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I want to conclude by expressing three issues that this Motion intended to do when we set it out this morning. The first one was to express the thanks of the Senate to the Rt. Hon. Raila Odinga to appreciate that he gave a good account of this country. This Senate notes that despite the fact that he may not have won, it was not because of anything in his own capacity. Given that it was a competition and there were other judges, they may have held different views. However, as a country, we are proud of him and the work that he did. Secondly is to record the thanks of this House to His Excellency President William Ruto for stepping up and ensuring that a man whom they fiercely competed with in the last presidential election and were separated only by barely 200,000 votes enjoyed the support and full backing of the Government of Kenya with no restraint. That is what a decent country should do because that is an important job. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have just been reminded. Last weekend, I saw a Member of the National Assembly whom I do not want to take seriously--- I think he is the MP for Juja Constituency. I do not want to take him seriously because I read elsewhere and I do not know if it is true that the only document he has is a driving license. Therefore, the kind of things he was saying about how much was spent is expected of such characters. The point is that Kenya should not have held back---"
