    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to say something about hon. Mututho but, first of all, I want to thank the various leaders of Nyeri County who are here today to see how we work. Hon. Speaker, I rise to support the Motion, as amended, because of one thing. Where we come from, our children are suffering because of alcoholism. Mr. Mututho has shown this country that he is the one who can do this job. Women and their children are crying that their husbands and fathers are not going home. They are not paying school fees for them. Women have been left at home, doing their work. People are crying. Refusing to give this job to Mr. Mututho is not doing justice. There are people in this House who have pending court cases. As we passed the new Constitution, we were told that even if one is charged in a court of law, one would not be guilty until proved guilty by a court. We know there are people who are opposed to this because they are making money. They have become rich as our children suffer. We have read in the Bible about the woman who was to be stoned, but Jesus told the people if any one of them had not sinned then they should be the first to throw a stone at the woman. Nobody threw a stone at the woman. So, let us not pretend here. If somebody is good let us give that person the job. He is going to save this country from alcohol and drugs. May God bless you. Thank you."
