    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to appreciate the unending generosity of the Minority Leader, Sen. Wetangula, and your kind consideration. I rise under Standing Order No.203 (5) which states:- “A report having been adopted by a majority of Senators, a Minority of Dissenting Report may be appended to the report by any Member or Members of the Committee.” I found it necessary that I codify the issues that I articulated in the Committee, not only about the specific charges that were so substantiated by a majority but also on the procedural fairness of the whole impeachment process. I want to start by reminding every Kenyan and Members of County Assemblies that this is the Senate of the Republic of Kenya. It shall never be party to internal squabbling, witch-hunt, malice, deficient or any other form of trivialities. This Senate shall only guide itself by facts, by law and by public interest. It is therefore my submission that whatever the impeachment proceedings that were averred to were internal issues of the Machakos County Government and County Assembly. It is in this light that this Senate must address itself to some of the issues. We should improve our processes to have some preliminary way in which we can dispense the aplication that in 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."
