    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, first of all, let me join Members and the Senate in expressing a strong view that this Motion is not about the person, conduct and ability of Sen (Prof.) Kindiki in the House. If there is anybody who came to that conclusion, then they are arguing the wrong Motion. Indeed, I am one of the last persons and there are many Senators who were with me that fateful evening; Sen. (Dr.) Mwaura was there. We were looking for a pathway and did not want to go through this process but were looking for a pathway of how to resolve this matter. We were up at night until about 1.00am in the morning. I had the privilege of talking to Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki, the Deputy Speaker, looking for a way out of the quagmire. As it has been said, this matter has been brought by the Jubilee Coalition and not the NASA coalition. Mr. Speaker, Sir, that being the case and Sen. (prof.) Kindiki knows when this House congregated for the first time for election of the Speaker, Deputy Speaker or the Leadership of the House, everything depended on the decisions of the political parties. Sen. Olekina, a very qualified Senator, ran for the office of the Deputy Speaker and we could not marshal enough numbers. It was not a question of competence but numbers. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
