The former AG, Prof. Githu Muigai, was my professor of Criminal Law. Kenya has had a good opportunity because the last three AGs or so have been very eminent people who understand the law very well. I believe they have helped this country a great deal. I believe Justice (Rtd.) Paul Kihara is going to assist the country in many ways. When he was being interviewed, I saw the Deputy Speaker keenly listening to his speech. Many more Kenyans also followed his speech with admiration. I urge Members to support this great man who is going to make Kenya greater and will give very honest legal advice to the country. I am sure even the issues to do with court orders may not lay squarely on the Attorney General. But, first and foremost, we must learn to respect the rule of law. I believe this will make our country better. If we respect the rule of law, I believe we will have a better country such that everyone complies with the law, whether you have been ordered or you are supposed to comply."}
