    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I just want to add my voice also to what my friends and distinguished Senators have said. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to urge you to exercise your quiet diplomacy with your brother, Speaker Muturi. This is a very serious matter that requires careful thinking. But the buck at the end of the day stops with the President. I would like to plead with my friend, hon. Uhuru Kenyatta, who is our President, not to assent to these Bills, so that we are enabled, as Senators, to do what our constitutional mandate is. This is because when we speak about “Parliament” passing any law, Parliament cannot exist without the Senate. So, I want to join my brother, the distinguished Senator for Tana River, in supporting that, in this matter, the buck stops with His Excellency the President. We, indeed, plead with him not to assent to these Bills. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
