"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you very much. From the onset, I support this Motion by the Senate Majority Leader. I wish to make a few comments. First is to congratulate the Rt. Hon. former Prime Minister Raila Odinga for running this race. As many of my colleagues have said, it was not about Raila Odinga; it was about Kenya. As we left Addis Ababa in Ethiopia, I was happy by the comments of the former Prime Minister Raila Odinga when he said he is coming back more energized and more focused going into the future. I want to thank the 22 nations from the African Union who stood for the seven rounds for Raila Odinga and in two rounds, he emerged leading. It is not easy to go seven rounds. We know of people who go for one minute and 59 seconds, but at this age, Baba Raila Odinga could manage to go for seven rounds in the African Union. So, we celebrate and appreciate what he did. He went for seven rounds; at his age, it is not easy to contest in the African Union. As a country, every cloud has a silver lining. I do not know why Sen. Hamida Kibwana is excited about the rounds. I do not know, but I do not want to digress."
