    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have been here for a long time; everybody is a bit tired and they would want to go. Therefore, I am not going to keep them for long by making a speech. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this would be the third impeachment debate in this House. It can be treated as the fourth because of the Deputy Governor of Embu. Now, I think that other than investigating what the deputy governor has done and also what we have done before, I think the most important thing is that this is a political House. Therefore, we are all politicians and we want to make a name to the public that we are genuine, fair and a people who understand what we want to do. Now that we have almost acquired that respect, my advice to the Committee which will investigate this matter is that they need to know that they will be out there on behalf of the Senate to do nothing, but to investigate the truth and whether all the allegations can be substantiated. Because we all know that there is a war between the Members of County Assemblies (MCAs) and the governors; there is also a war between governors and their deputies; all these things are going to end here. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have to be prepared, therefore, to deal with the matters very seriously and that we must prove to the public that we are fair, as we have already done. Let us not do haphazard investigations because our people today are more intelligent than The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
