    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. First, I would like to appreciate the ruling of the Speaker, which has enabled us to have a chance to debate this Report which is before us. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, like my colleagues, I also wish to congratulate the Committee for a job well done. The word “investigate” is scientific. It is used when we form a Committee here. It means that the decisions that we make are as a result of the findings that we arrive at after investigations. So, I wish to address the nation and let people know that we make decisions after carrying out investigations. Therefore, the decisions that we are making have been arrived at validly. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just want to make a comment regarding the impeachment process. The impeachment process is a very traumatizing thing. I witnessed this in my neighbouring county. I know that things have been at a standstill in Kericho County, as a result of this process. Impeachment kills hope, motivation and aspiration. It even breeds hatred among the communities. I want to take this opportunity to urge that the word “reconciliation” should be a very important asset in the next few days in Kericho County. There is a group of elders in Kericho called “Miot” that has been referred to in the Report. I really want to urge that this group of elders rises up and serves the community at a higher interest like they have not done before. It is this group of elders that should do their best to heal the rifts in Kericho County. We wish them as well as the Governor success. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
