    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I ask that you give me three minutes in the spirit of fairness because everybody has spoken for at least three minutes, so that you are not accused of giving disabled people two minutes. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to eulogize the late President Daniel Toroitich arap Moi who served Parliament for 47 years. That is quite a long time. I think that is something that everybody would desire here in Parliament because the recent practice is that people are only in Parliament for only one or two terms and that is it. In fact, the second term is seen as an achievement. There is a co-variance between serving for a long time in Parliament an also becoming a President especially if you look at the old Constitution because you will see President Moi and also President Kibaki, as we are told, was in Parliament for 50 years. That is something that historians will have to actually read into."
