    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to contribute to this Motion. We have sworn to uphold the law and every process which goes on in the county assemblies, in this Senate or in any House has to follow the law. In the case of Kenya, it has to be the Constitution of Kenya and the Acts of Parliament dealing with that matter. Anything outside that becomes a different scenario and the law has to apply as it is decided. The issue of an impeachment of a governor is a serious matter and has very serious consequences. Therefore, the law must be followed to the letter, so that an assembly does not get involved in an exercise in futility. This House should also not get involved in an exercise in futility. The moment we make a decision; the governor can go to a court to seek further justice. Even an assembly can also go to a court to seek further justice if we never followed the process. Therefore, it is important that we adhere to the process. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
