    "content": "gave that injunction. Yes, we want to be recognized and have our powers, but we cannot be a cry baby and expect that the rest of the institutions are going to fight our battles. What my colleague Senator Billow Kerrow said before he left is worth noting because we, as a Senate, need to sit down and strategize, determine and chart the future business of this House. For example, as he said, even before we had a sitting Government in place, Governors had already organised themselves, they had the Council of Governors and immediately started engaging the former President. What stops this House from having a Senate Council or a team of serious Senators who are going to chart our way forward and, indeed, strategise when certain needs arise? As it is said, if you do not plan, you plan to fail. I want to challenge this House and the current leadership in this House that they have to get their act right. At one time, one of our Senators asked this question: If we keep complaining, what will that person who is outside there who expects to find solutions through this House do? When I say that our leadership needs to get their act right, I am saying they need to chart a course forward for this House. My question as I finish is: Why is the Council of Governors not complaining? With those remarks, I beg to support."
