    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for the opportunity to speak on this amendment. Indeed, it was my wish to do that. But, unfortunately, when I was speaking, there were very many interruptions and the time ran out. I thank Sen. Elachi for moving the amendment. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as the Senate, we either believe in the rule of law or we do not. We either have to tell Kenyans that sometimes we can go the jungle way and sometimes, we can follow the law and as lawmakers, we should set the right example. You cannot say that because you are unhappy with an administration, you can now make a coup. We know the way to remove a bad government; it is through the constitutional way, which is through the vote. I want to urge my colleagues here that we will be setting a very bad precedence if we should leave, in a Motion, anything to do with the coup of 1982, where also many people lost their lives, and those victims are the ones we should be talking for. I will end there, although there are many things to say---"
