    "content": "Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to contribute in support of this important Bill. We are wondering why we have never had such a Bill before. Such a Bill is going to assist to ensure that handing over and taking over will be according to the law. In the past, there has been no law. The ceremony will be done according to the law. There will be order. I believe we will not witness the chaos as it happened in 2002. I hope both the outgoing and the incoming presidents will be respected. This committee will be able to plan it. In 2002 when the former President Moi was handing over to the incumbent President, there was a lot chaos. This country owes President Moi an apology because he was not treated with decorum. Not even a single word of “thank you” was ever uttered to him. I think it is never too late to thank him. I think those who took over should even have told him “thank you for coming to hand over power to us”. That would have been enough for him because he did a lot for this country. It is important to recognize his role in this country."
