    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for protecting me. The good book says, “Knock and the doors shall be opened”. I have just knocked and you have opened the door. As I was saying, that way, this country will begin to get value from leadership. This business where the ‘lower’ House looks for excuses by calling Senators names whenever it has challenges in executing its mandate must come to an end. A time will come when we will need to look at the value for representation in this country beginning with the number of constituencies that we have and what they are doing for this country. Whereas Members of the National Assembly represent single constituencies, Senators represent counties. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those many remarks, I support the Statement. It is time this Senate stamped its authority and discharged its responsibilities without fear or favour."
