    "content": " Madam Temporary Speaker, since this is a Procedural Motion, I will not take a lot of time. I support the Motion. Allow me to use the instrumentality of this Motion to congratulate Sen. Ochillo-Ayacko. As it has been said, Sen. Ochillo-Ayacko is a man with rare Curriculum Vitae (CV). He is a lawyer. He has done a Masters Degree and has been a Member of Parliament. He is not coming to this Parliament as a new Member as it were because he served several times in the National Assembly. If you go back to the elections in 2002, Sen. Ochillo-Ayacko is one of the people who played a very important role in providing a forum to enable the Government, at that time, which brought the country together, to set a working Committee between the various formations within National Rainbow Coalition (NARC). No lesser person than President Kibaki had occasion to talk to me at one time about what Sen. Ochillo-Ayacko and others did to bring that team together before and after the elections of 2002. I am sure that he will play that role effectively in the two Committees. Madam Temporary Speaker, let me assure the Leader of the Majority that crocodiles are not everywhere. Certainly during the election in Migori County, if anybody had any doubt that the ‗handshake‘ was working, the Jubilee Party did not offer a candidate in the County. In fact, some of the Jubilee Members of Parliament (MPs), including Sen. Sakaja, went to Migori to campaign for Sen. Ochillo-Ayacko. I hope that in the process of ‗building bridges,‘ the Jubilee Party may also decide not to offer a presidential candidate in 2022. Let that continue to be the order of the day."
