    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to join my colleagues in supporting this Motion. As we watch the debates in the National Assembly and read utterances in the newspapers, and sometimes watch on TV, we wonder whether the two gentlemen who come unfortunately from the side of the coalition where I am, are really there for the good of this Government or they are there as moles to bring down the Government. I am saying this because they have now become so “powerful” to the extent that they can dare the Constitution by allowing even such utterances such as; “Senate must go.” How can they say that the Senate must go when the role and the function of Senate is clearly indicated, which is different from that one of the National Assembly? They complement one another to make the House of Parliament. I sometimes fail to understand whether these people could be the ones who were opposed to the creation of this Constitution. You recall that there are people who vehemently fought the enactment of this law and eventually when the Kenyan people spoke and came up with this Constitution, it looks like they did not subscribe to this. If they did, they would not be speaking the way they are doing. I fail to understand how 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."
