"content": "In the interest of the matter of time which was raised by Hon. T. J. Kajwang’, let me make a few remarks. I also congratulate Hon. Benjamin Langat on his appointment as High Commissioner to Namibia. I have been thinking about the speech I would make on the Floor of this House, if Ms. Sarah Serem is appointed to any position. I have been thinking about it since the day she said that if Members of Parliament will be given sitting allowances, they will ask for standing allowance, walking allowance, sleeping allowance and waking up allowance. I served with you in the Parliamentary Service Commission in the 11th Parliament. Despite writing several letters, it would take us six months to get an appointment to meet the officials of the Salaries and Remuneration Commission. I have meditated on this matter. The scathing speech I had prepared was only toned down when my pastor called me and preached about forgiveness and the spirit of the handshake. This is the only reason why I have reflected, meditated and finally said that forgiveness and letting go, non-vindictiveness is part of the game out here."
