    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, with all due respect, sometimes I measure my words very carefully. I did not intend to impute any improper motive on my junior colleague, Sen. Wamatangi. It will help you to remember that a Member of Parliament defines two sets of leaders in this country; a Senator and a Member of the National Assembly. So, by seniority I was not referring to Senator; I was referring to Member of Parliament, which we all are. If you are still in doubt about that seniority, let us leave it to the gallery. The observers will judge whether in the meaning of the Constitution of Kenya, your seniority is equal to mine. Madam Temporary Speaker, I, therefore, urge my colleagues to support this Motion. Perusing these names I see Sen. (Prof.) Anyang'-Nyong'o, CORD; Sen. Khaniri, CORD; and Sen. Ndiema, CORD. These are three. They add to Sen. Hassan, four, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, five and, finally. Attorney General Emeritus, Sen. Wako, CORD, to make a total of six. So, there should be no beef. Let us go over this thing. This Committee will require that we work as a team so that we vote in the same manner that we have been voting when I was the Chairman. Finally, as I support, I thank my colleagues for the way we worked. We did a good job. I look forward to us adopting and moving all the reports that we have already prepared. Madam Temporary Speaker, with those remarks, I beg to second."
