    "content": "I am just saying that when you were mentioning the people who assisted you in one way or another, you forgot that we met somewhere and I prayed for you next to your place. But, however, with a light touch, I want to say congratulations. Your coming back is of importance to this House and to this country. The Committees in which you are going to serve ; the Standing Committee on Finance, Commerce and Economic Affairs and the Standing Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations, among other Committees – are very important Committees, as the seconder was trying to advance. All the Committees which we have, in one way or another, are very important to this House and also to this country. I also know that all the Senators who are here – the 67 of us – in one way or another, have some value in all the Committees. Therefore, I want to congratulate Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale and Sen. Okong’o for doing a good job. The insecurity in this country cannot be pinned down on the Committees of this House; it is a national function; it is a big issue and, therefore, if we say that the coming back of Sen. Wetangula will really enhance security, we will not be saying the truth. Therefore, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, as my colleagues have said earlier, really deserves to be in one of the vital Committees. I believe that with the creation of the Public Accounts Committee, whereby in the last Parliament, he did his work very well on the county accounts – and he recently did a very good job on the Special Committee dealing with the Wambora issue, I believe he deserves to get that Committee."
