    "content": "Hon. Speaker, it interesting that, again, this House is discussing something that I would call a relationship between the National Assembly and the Senate. I have said this before and I want to repeat it. It is high time that the people of Kenya engaged on whether we want to make the Senate the Upper House as it should be or what to do with it. The problem that we have is that we have given the Senate, the title “Senate” and yet, we did not make it the Upper House in the Constitution. That is an engagement that if I was Mr. Nyachae, who is responsible for the Commission for the Implementation of the Constitution (CIC), would be holding fora across the country asking Kenyans: “What powers do we need to have in the Senate? Are you happy with the Senate in as far as the powers that it has is concerned?”"
