    "content": "Thank you Hon. Speaker. I said that as I talk in this House for the first time today, I am aware that there is the feeling that perhaps we are starting to work. In the past, I did not find it very easy to agree with Hon. Duale. However, today I want to agree with him that it may not be in order to bring this matter into this discussion. Having said such an honourable thing, he went on to take full advantage of the situation. There is no Member here who is not wise enough to know that as a much as you say that you should not bring it here, you go on to take advantage of the situation and offer solace where perhaps there is none. That maybe in order politically, but we should know that as we sit here, the state of this nation is not as tranquil as we probably think. There is need to be very cautious when dealing with such issues. We have just come from an election where the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) failed tragically as an independent institution. We went through an election that has left the nation so tragically and painfully divided. That election has brought an outcome that cannot bring tranquillity because a large part of the nation does not believe that the leadership in place is legitimate even though it is deemed to be legal.
