    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Allow me to add my voice in supporting the Adjournment Motion. I would also like to add my voice in saying this House is a House of honour and decorum. I support the implementation of the monitoring and evaluation fund because this is where everything is. We have witnessed devolution in place, we have witnessed what is happening in the country and it is time that this adjournment allows us to go and interact with the electorate. The electorate expects a lot from us. We do realize that in this House, we do not have the proper tools for reaching out and supporting our electorate. Therefore, it is time that this House is made strong in giving us the proper tools so that we can do the right work that we are meant to do. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the work that the House has done is enormous. I know our Committee on Health has not completed its work and people do not see it. Next week, we will not enjoy the recess as such because it has been short. When we want to reach to the counties, we are called back. So, it is time that we take our work seriously and take a longer period for recess so that we are able to meet and interact in the counties so that people can realize what the Senate does. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to say that we have carried ourselves well. I would like to borrow what Sen. M. Kajwang said that it will not auger well when all of us would like to go and stand for governorship. This is an important House that makes devolution work. When we run for governorship because there are many goodies, what are we showing people? The Senate has done its work and I would like to commend the Senators for the work they have done and they should continue doing so. With those few remarks, I support the Adjournment Motion and wish everyone a good short holiday but I wish it could be longer in the future. Thank you."
