    "content": "Finally, Madam Temporary Speaker, I know that this Motion – as Sen. Wako has said – is one that this Senate has taken with the seriousness it deserves. I, therefore, call upon the Government and the necessary agencies to work together to ensure that we give a dignified life, and not a dignified exit, because we do not want to--- I, therefore, call upon all Senators to come together and support the 12,000 former councillors who are watching us today. That is the reason they brought the Petition to the Senate and not the National Assembly, because they know that the Senate will always protect their interests. We do not only protect the interest of councillors, but those of Kenyans at large, because they have a right, just like any other Kenyan who demands for their rights. We will, therefore, be interested to ensure that this issue is fast tracked for the welfare of former councillors and many others. Many people have been mentioned here who have been councillors before and are still leaders to this level."
