Mungatana versus his opponent is long over. It is no longer a case in court. How does that create conflict? We the leaders, including my learned friend, hon. Olago Aluoch, for whom I have tremendous respect for, stand on a platform every day and say: \"Young people must be given an opportunity to lead this country.\" When we provide you with a young person, with proven competence, professional career, we say: \"He is unqualified and unsuitable. Reason? None is given. I want to urge that it is dangerous and wrong to prejudge anybody before you taste and feel his or her potential. The young Miller is a lawyer that we all know. You have heard at no time, my learned senior point out that Mr. Miller has mis-conducted himself as a lawyer, or has conducted himself in a manner unfit for a person learned in law. All he is saying is that he is such a competent lawyer that he has two petitions acting for Mr. Esposito and acted for Mr. Mungatana. That is a credit to him. It is not a minus."}
