    "content": "sit down together and have a cup of tea; whether we are indeed friends, and whether Hon. Simba Arati and Hon. Ngunjiri can actually talk together. They were looking for Mhe. Kajwang’. We told them that politics is not enmity, and that they should not, as members of the public, think that we hate each other. We told them that we do not hate each other, and they have seen for themselves. They have had lunch with us and interacted with Members. They have been to the Senate, where they were told that it is the Upper House of Parliament. We now say that as the Lower House with the upper hand, we also believe in cohesion. It is very important that as politicians, we demonstrate to Kenyans that in as much as we may disagree on certain issues, we do not hate each other. Hon. Kaluma should also tell Kenyans that things do not get to that extent. Hon. Speaker, I especially want to thank Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. We have just received a message from the Senate that indeed there is need for us to start cohesion between the two Houses of Parliament. We are therefore honoured to have a great Senator like Mutula Jnr. in the Public Gallery – not in the Speaker’s Gallery – sitting together with this great team of Kenyans."
