Lusaka","speaker_title":"The Speaker","speaker":null,"content":"Hon. Senators, today we create a new path in the democratic governance of our country by setting in motion a Senate program which shall, henceforth, be replicated in other counties and regions. Through these sittings, the Members of this Third Senate will be involved in a critical process of redefining the work systems and ethics of the Senate. This inaugural Senate sitting in Uasin Gishu County – and the subsequent ones to be held outside Nairobi – will serve to open up the scope for the Senate to operate amidst the people beyond our country‟s capital. Let us face it; the Senate is all about our people and their needs."}
