    "content": "Lastly, allow me to say that we are not oblivious of the fact that part of the agenda that has brought us here, especially the election laws is quite emotive. We are leaders in this country; we do not live in Mars. As we even sit here - this should go out to all those people who thought we have come here for acrimony and stampede - that here we come soberly to discharge our legislative duties and then go home in peace. Some of us have driven ourselves because our drivers are on holiday and you cannot ask such a person who has driven himself to go and park in River Road, considering that we even have two presidential candidates in this House; the only House with presidential candidates for 2017 and more for 2022. Allow me just to condemn in the strongest terms possible, any attempt by police officers - who should be all over this country from Tharaka-Nithito Mandera, Mombasa to Busia protecting Kenyans and looking for bandits and thieves that are terrorizing our villages. They should not come here and intimidate us and run their fingers all over leaders. Those have nothing to do with Government but have something to do with somebody somewhere who sat and instructed police to come here and try to intimidate us. That person should be condemned. He should be identified and brought here or in the court of public opinion for national ridicule and shame I condemn."
