    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I want to convey my condolences to the family of the late Hon. Janet Teiyiaa, who was the Woman Representative for Kajiado County from 2017 to 2022, and a nominated Member of Parliament from 2013 to 2017. Despite her condition, she was able to vie and lead the people of Kajiado after defeating a number of leaders who competed with her in the 2017 General Election. She is a person who came from an interior area and has done a lot for the people of Kajiado. She was a leader who demonstrated good leadership to her people. Therefore, I want to say pole to the people of Kajiado and the family. Before I end, let me contribute to the Motion and what the Senate is doing. They are Hon. Members who are loitering around Parliament, but do not understand their function and oversight role. When they come to Parliament, instead of offering oversight to their counties, they go around the counties taking lot of money in collaboration with governors without offering a single project to the people. If it happens again that we go for a referendum, we need to change this Constitution and do away with the Senate. Therefore, I submit. We are tired of the Senators and the country is also tired of them."
