    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was saying that if we were to humble ourselves and submit to the expectations of Kenyans, that we be seen and remain to be friends of democracy and friends of the Kenyans who voted, especially the Kenyans who made sacrifices, including losing their lives. This Chapter on Leadership and Integrity Article 73(1)(a)(ii) says as follows:- “A public officer should be seen to demonstrate respect for the people. (iii) Should be seen to bring honour to the nation and the dignity of that office. (iii) He should be seen to promote public confidence in the integrity of the office that he has been recommended to.” When I look at this and at Article 73(2)(c)(i) and (ii) and 77(1) and (2), on behalf of Kenyans, I request the Speaker, who has, at this moment, successfully curved a niche for himself in this country as a man who stands out and stands on the side of the law, to guide the country as to whether we can just allow the country to wake up tomorrow not knowing who is about to be sworn in. Can we allow Kenyans to wake up tomorrow not knowing whether the people who do not meet that high standard will find their way in office in spite of their famous history or if I may call it, infamous?"
