Mr. Speaker, Sir, as a nation, we have come through a challenging two months period since the 27th December, 2007 General Elections. The post-election violence that saw more than 1,000 people killed, over 300,000 people displaced and billions of shillings worth of property burnt or looted, shook our sense of nationhood. I ask you, once again, to rise and join me in observing a minute of silence in remembrance of those who lost their lives during the post-election violence."}
