"content": ", nitawakaranga kidogo. We respect them. When they brought the Report on Patel Dam, we praised them, because they made us proud. However, on this one, on a scale of 1 to 10, a score of 2 is very fair, because they have failed us, as a House. I agree with Sen. M. Kajwang' that we are a House of reason. We should have taken the opportunity to advance our scientific cogent argument so that the nation is ceased of this matter. It could have been as a result of Members of the National Assembly being intimidated by the Executive, which bribes them through the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF). However, it could have shown that the Senate at least seems to have some modicum of reasonability and some plausibility. Madam Temporary Speaker, we have set a precedent and they may want to correct the anomaly by amending the commencement day so that it does not appear that the Appropriation Bill was passed without the Division of Revenue Bill being passed. We are, therefore, even aiding them to commit an illegality. If we do not do this, we will be encouraging ourselves to do so, and the precedent will continue. Madam Temporary Speaker, I have voted because that is my party’s decision; but I refuse to accept that, that is the way we should have gone---"
