    "content": "National Assembly, special tribunal or it may have been pointed out that, probably, under the Commissions of Inquiries Act whenever there is a matter of this nature, then a judicial commission should be appointed. But the Constitution makers were very clear that this is a mandate that rests with the Senate. Therefore, in receiving this Report and the previous Report, I fell very proud as a Senator. Nobody can accuse the Senate of being a lynch-mob. Out there, they should declare that any case that will come before this Senate will be dealt with in accordance with the merits of the case. So, Governor Chepkwony, if you are in any part of the Chamber, go back to Kericho and praise the Constitution of Kenya; that this is a great document and the Senate has used it to apply the law and not saved you. Before the law, you are the Governor of Kericho and nobody will stand between you and that position; and the Senate has confirmed as much. But to those who doubt the capacity of the Senate to deal with this matter; a matter probably which could take a day or two to resolve, you may end up being before the Committees and the Senate for long unnecessarily because you would think that another tribunal out there may do you better justice. But I can assure you that this responsibility was put in the hands of the Senate for a good cause. So, have respect and confidence in the Senate and justice will be done. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
