    "content": " Order! I am talking now. The point I am making – it is good to remember that I said this – is that the reason we have due process is to ensure that everybody finds that justice has been done to them; the rich and the poor, those sitting in the Senate and those outside as Kenyan citizens going about their businesses. We talk about corruption. It is a very important issue that we are discussing and most of us abhor it. However, before you claim that somebody is corrupt or they have done something corruptly, it is important that they too are heard. There is a family dispute going on. It has been going on for many years and that is in common knowledge. It is neither for me nor you to decide whether the property was acquired corruptly or not because, then, there will be no due process. When you will be caught in the same situation, you will want the protection of this Chair, so that you are not discussed by people who think that your notoriety is common knowledge. That is why we have due process. I will guard that as jealously as I can because that is the right of every citizen."
