"content": "wife because the integrity of this Senate lies in the decisions that they make. Many a times, we have heard that legislators take kickbacks. I know that this is a Committee of men and women of high integrity and that they must fly the flag of the Senate. I hope that they will remember that the Senate is the guardian of devolution. In their deliberations, I would like to join other Senators who have said before that they must take a bipartisan approach. They must leave their party considerations at home as they deliberate on these issues. Let us put politics aside. Let us show that this is the House of wisdom, the Upper House, in the way that the Committee will handle this matter. Kenyans are watching. Kenyans want justice. Let justice be the guiding criterion for this Special Committee. No other consideration should be looked at. I beg that they take that into consideration. I end by saying that the Senate, as the guardian of devolution, should look into this matter in a very careful and respectful way. I speak this from my heart because we must know that the outcome of this Committee and what this Senate decides will set an example and of how devolution matters will be managed in this country in future. We do not want to open a pandora box that will bring this Senate down on how we deliberate. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
